6860, 6 bolt swap in a 96 TSi Posted by talonguy2005, Feb-02-07 10:12 AM
Ok, since it seems very hard to sell a rebuilt 6 bolt motor, I'm just gonna have to do the swap, which I really didn't want to do. So basically I need a list of parts that I will need to buy. Has anyone here done the swap?
The parts that I've found out that I'll need are: -1G Cam Sensor -New wiring harness for the 2G connections to work with the 1G cam senor
Also the car is automatic, will the 2G torque converter bolt up to the 1G block? I don't know because the engine I got is missing the plate that the torque converter bolts up to.
The 6 bolt motor I have came out of a 92 laser just for the record.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Here are some pics:

All your accessories are 2g (PS, Alt, A/C). Your motor mount needs to be 2g, and have it notched as Magnus states. Everything else is 1g - water pump, tensioner arm, and timing belt cover that needs to be cut (1g covers have 2 different setups for fasteners, so check up on that in vfaq). You'll also need to purchase a Kiggly adapter kit from IPT, or find one for sale, to mate your block to your transmission.
