Recommended Posts

Hello, i know that there is lots of topics on here already and i know if i search i will find my answer but.....im wondering if anyone can tell me if the 406 sri engine fits onto the same engine mounts as my 205 gti 1.9...as somone told me that it is a straight swap apart from the electrics?

 

thankyou

electrics and exhuast but otherwise drops straight in. Some people need to extend the bottom mount slightly to give a few vital mm on the master cylinder and bulkhead but its a ten minute job with a drill. :rolleyes:

You are best to get a shorter top mount to lower the engine slightly though otherwise it is very tight on the master cylinder.

Which 406 engine is it, Some early SRi's used the 8v turbo and the later ones' the 16v engine
