Talk to me about this.
basically as most of you know I have a mk2 phase 2 1.2 16v clio and I noticed a cheap mk3 1.2 TCE d4ft engine (turbo one from the newer clios) for sale on here needing a turbo and oil return pipe although the seller can add the turbo into the sale, so would need the oil return pipe (can't see them being too expensive).
I'm wanting to know how compatible the two are? wiring, gearbox, clutch, driveshafts etc etc
had a quick search and a few people have talked about it but not really mentioned the gearbox... is it a straight fit when it comes to mountings etc?
loads of questions before I dive into buying the engine but I'm hoping that some of you folk will help me answer them
*cough* Chip *cough* Fred *cough* *cough*
any help/advice would be appreciated
