Stevie, if you strip a modern engine with 3o thou it would prob be in a worse state . These engines were built to last .

Nice job but my curb rash is not so easily removed

Refresh it and keep the car original 😊

Keep it as original as possible

What happened to the Audi?

Hi Steve. I would have gone down the same route as you have. Component condition and probability of re use. is a serious part of what is needed. On any reconstruction project. See you in the next one. Cheers. 👍👍

Yes Steve that engine will go again with no worries 👍 you will have to give us a update on Charlie tell him hello.

Double check the engine code as a lot of 1.6 are stamped 1.8 because they used the same castings , loving the vids on the scirocco

The 1.8 carb engine is a sweet engine,l had a 1.8GL scirocco about 20 years ago it was good on fuel too,around 90bhp when New!

Brilliant keep the video coming guys

Use the engine in question its original to the vehicle as you got it. Could be 1600cc engine block with 1800cc upgrade

I would keep that engine and give a refresh

Looks like you've got a not bad engine there Steven quality video again as always 👍

Good luck Stevie 👍👍👍

Keep it original Stevie makes the car better in my opinion, but then I'm auld skool 😂

Excellent video, the shciroco is going to look brilliant when finished!

I've got one of them torches too. Don't drop it, the batteries will fall out. Good video. Although I wish it was a Mk1 Scirocco.

Keep it original stevie put it back in and if someone else wants to put a different engine in later fair enough but keep as original as possible

The 1.6 engines had a 1.8 block so it may be an original 1.6 engine. This was the case in MK2 golfs 👍

Brilliant as always 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

I REALLY like that you are teaching your son how to help you and how to use tools. Then he gains confidence and self esteem that he can do anything himself!! Awesome job DAD / MENTOR !!

Manky Scot’s git!

Dont suppose you fancy making me an identical intercooler bracket ill pay ya.. 😂 i have an s5 and am going to do a turbo upgrade 👍

Grear job, from a distance those lights looked ok, shame they dont hold up.

Great video. I've bought a c4 and there's a hidden esp fault, so hopefully this is the way to get rid of it

When you're drilling on paint, put tape on it. It'll save more of the paint. And I'm not saying it looks bad at all. It looks great, just a little chest to save paint.

Hey, I’m thinking about buying this but they have the same reference both sides of the front absorbers. Do they have side? Or both sides are symmetrical and interchangeable?

Where can I find the in depth video on changing the belt? Cant't seem to find it on your channel. Cheers

hey could you maybe explain how you mounted that tachometer? and where did you buy it? thanks in advance, greetings from the Netherlands

Great video really good products. APS detailing North Shields put me onto Infinty wax products to keep my car looking good , great products and you can dilute . I purchased the Twist Drying Towel 50x80cm 1400gsm - Grey brilliant at drying the car Citrus Pre-Wash Concentrate Power foam Snow foam Pure Shampoo Incinerate Wheel Cleaner Very happy with there products next day delivery order before 1:30pm and UK based well done 👏👏👏👏

Please tell me you wore a face mask with that lacquer and paint!!

The only trans fluid that should ever go in any NC MX5 transmission is Ford Motorcraft XT-M5-QS. These transmissions were co-designed by Ford and Mazda and work best using this fluid. It’s expensive, and sounds strange to put “Ford fluid in a Mazda,” but trust me… it’s worth it.

Better to use the timing tool…..cheap enough to buy.

Cracking video on a cracking company. Top job guys 👍🏻 I’ll be subscribing to your channel!
