Well you already have the GT motor and all the stuff, right? It'll take a little more time and doing, but cheaper.... but putting in the 1.8 would be easier.... just depends on how much work you wanna put into it v.s. spending money on an engine that you don't know the history of

If you have a donor car with the trans, motormounts, axles, etc.. It would be pretty simple. You would just need to drill a hole for the pass side motor mount. -------------------- 15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned
