I know this isnt kinda vauxhall related but I thought maybe some of you guys could help.
My mate would like to know if its possible to fit an F20 to his Golf 1.6 driver on a H-plate and what modifications may be needed to make it fit.

Any help is much appreciated, cheers guys :beer: :beer:

Cheers guys, anyone know of a specific VW gearbox that is similar in ratios to that of the F20? I think this would save a lot of hassle, i spose making an adapter is a possibility but i imagine the mounts would be a git to sort. Also trying to find a clutch plate that matches the splines of the input shaft would be hard?

Can i ask is there any special reason why he wants to do this??
I think he wants closer gears, so like when he hits 6-7K rpm (or whatever) in first, second gear will be at the higher end of the rpm so theres no lag between gears me thinks :rolleyes:

I can say to him about it but isnt final drive ratio, 5th gear? He wants quicker acceleration over top speed i think :beer:
