Hi

Ive been offered a saxo vtr 1.6 8 valve and the auto box in my city is going, so i was wondering if anyone had any idea how hard this conversion would be and a rough idea of what i would have to do?

The engine comes with a manual gearbox

Thanks

Peter

Just look at any of the threads in this section, that should give you an idea of what is involved.

Try this one http://www.theminifo...howtopic=161530 yes the engine is different than yours but the work required will be very similar.

Yes, along with shortened driveshafts and wiring and plumbing.
