what conversions are possible on a 1.4rt?

[Paddy_g46]

iv herd but valver engines and 1.7 volvos but what are my options and which would b cheapest/easiest?

 

[darren_rallye]

Bare in mind there will be more to change than just the engine - suspension, brakes, etc...

And that selling a mod'd car will be more difficult...

It's often cheaper to sale up and buy a valver or whatever in the first place.

However, if this is your project and these things don't matter, then good on you.
