shaunje 10 Posted September 5, 2013 Hi everyone, I've got a Corrado 16V 1.8 KR and it seems to be fairly unhappy. It's making some evil noises, it's chucking out out all over the bottom of the car and I think the clutch is murdered too. I have an ABF sat on my driveway that I think I should throw in as I can not be without a car. I figured it's probably quicker and easier to run it on the KR's K-JET system. Is there anything I need to do to put this engine into my car or can I just pull the KR out and drop the ABF in plug and play? I'm in a major rush so any help is greatly appreciated. Cheers, Shaun Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
davidwort 0 Posted September 5, 2013 Club gti forum has a specific thread on this conversion, but it should essentially be plug in and go, use the inlet manifold from the kr for the injectors, not 100 % about the rear engine mount height but the block is only 10mm or so longer Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Roger Blassberg 0 Posted September 6, 2013 As David says the block is higher, in fact by 15mm if I remember correctly, so with an "early" bonnet you will almost certainly need to modify it a little. RB Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shaunje 10 Posted September 6, 2013 Will the exhaust manifold from the KR swap straight to the ABF? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
