RE: Radiator options for MK1 16v



Count me in on this as well, my engine is in, and after receiving a
radiator, I drilled the second hole, AND sawzalled the lip above the
radiator about 1/4 inch, and THEN found out that the hoses wouldn't
match up to the outlets. Talk about not paying attention...DAMN! Also,
after mounting the engine and tranny, I have now decided I want all poly
mounts. The front mount is poly already, but this means I have to jack
the engine up, secure it and remove both side mounts, have them pressed
in and out, and reinstall them. I thought I had everything planned real
well, but maybe next time. It seems like were all standing over our
MK1's scratching out heads right now. Hey, how many of you have got your
wives screaming at you to finish the car? ;-0

 Oh Jim... Can you feel the pressure rising!?  ;)

It sounds like Ken and I are almost in the same place in the swap...
my '80 has no engine right now, and the 16v is almost ready to go in.
I think that I can figure out all the hardware mountings and such, but
when it comes to the wiring harness...that's where your help could 
really come in.  Would you be able to do a small write-up on the wire
connections...Daun said it was only like 5 wires that had to be spliced.
If you can recall any other wiring issues that would be great!
Thanks!
