does anyone have an RD swap?

[sad_rocc at yahoo.com (Dan Smith)]

Yeah, finding the knock sensor stuff is surprisingly difficult. I've looked over Greg's site, it'll come in handy when I get the knock sensor wiring. Hmm RD+g-grind+euro mani and dp=peppy little bastard. RD+TT 268+wrapped headers+lightened flywheel+autotech 2.5" exhaust=big evil grin. Oh man, this isn't gonna get done soon enough. Thanks for the info. Who knows, maybe I'll be lucky enough to get a port job done cheaply too. Thanks for all the info.

You have to use knock-sensing ignition though. Hit Greg's site for the details. www.driversfound.com

Patrick may have something on it as well (though I haven't looked) since he completed his 3A swap.

With all this talk about 2L with 1.8 heads and 16v vs 8v I was curious if anyone on the list has swapped a 1.8 8v RD motor into their car. This is my slow moving summer project (I live near Eric S., what do you expect?) although if I had my way it'd be done yesterday. Can't my employers understand I need a week or so off (paid of course) so I can work on my cars? If anyone has done this swap, send me an email and tell me about it to whet my appetite.
