How much money are you willing to spend,

its not that easy doing engine conversions, usually comes down to electrics, nothing ever matches up...

If you have a deep pocket... well..... you can make anything fit into anything,

ive seen VR6 engines in polo's...and the 2.8.... so yeh! ......

by the mint with the hole
They never made a 1.6GTI golf, just a 1.6 driver, the gti was a 1.8, that would go in, off a mk2, the seat ibiza GTI is a 2lt flat four like the polo one, just a bigger head really, so that should be alright, i would personally put a 2ltr 16v ibiza gti in if you were going to the extent of swapping engines do it properly.
