Can it be done ?

Post by Nearly-Def »

Im really new to the T25 scene so please excuse my ignorance.
I am awaiting delivery of my panel van and have not seen the engine bay yet so was hoping someone else could answer this.
Is it possible to place a transverse ( FWD ) complete setup as it is removed and modify the engine bay to accept this ?
Basically placing the engine and matching box from say a Golf TDi and running the complete setup as it came out the golf ?

Anything can be done if you have the money and the time and the skill.

You only have to look at what the germans do to their T25s, Audi V8 mid engines, V8 engines, v6 engines etc..

So the basic answer is yes, with the above mention parameters.
