038 Engine Swap System (16V diesel block)

Our new 038 236mm diesel block conversion allows direct fitment of a modern Mk4 engine to an earlier Mk1, 2 or 3. Add an early 16-valve head (for use gasoline fuel) and enjoy superior breathing at high revs or with forced induction. See our piston and connecting rods sections for more completion options.

While sharing lots of design DNA, early 16v engines (e.g. Mk1 - Mk2/3) differ from their younger cousins (e.g. Mk4). They use an intermediate shaft to drive the oil pump. Also, v-belts are used vs. the 06A/B motor's more convenient serpentine arrangement. The later model's water pump is internal vs. the older block's external system. Lastly,the modern blocks include a crank sensor. So, it's no longer necessary to add one for modern engine management. This package makes it a cinch to update an old generation chassis and to enjoy all the late model benefits.
