172 lump in a mk1

[Chief]

Does anyone know if this has been done? Is it possible?

My first thought would be.....

How the hell will it fit? If it does fit, its gonna be one hell of a squeeze, its a tight squeeze in the 172 car let alone a different one.

Just a thought. Just want something a bit different in me motor. need more power, but I dont think engine mods on an RSi lump would be worth it

 

[Mike@Rentech]

wont fit, engines to tall, then you gota worry about the electrics!

 

[BenR]

too tall with the std injection and inlet manifold, but it should fit with throttle bodies. then you wouldnt have to worry about electrics either.

U thought bout putting in a v6 engine in the back instead ????

 

[BenR]

Dont they already make those? lol
