We've done a few scooby and a v6 cologne conversion but this customer wants something cheaper, what's the cheapest reliable replacement for a 1.9 dg, what prts are needed from the donor car and what if any special parts are needed?
Thanks in advance,
staf

2ltr golf engine 2E or AGG. diesel bell housing & engine bars required.Some may frown but a good reliable engine & cheap to buy from salvage yards.
Re: What's the most simple replacement for a 1.9dg
Do any fit on the same bell housing?
