A friend of mine managed to drop a T16 out of a 405 into a 205 CTI, looked
very hot and drove like a cannonball. His 2nd project was a V6 out of the
605/406 into the 205 GTI. Ran as if it was chased by a bomb exploding.
Fitted all barely and made the cooling getting pushed to the max but it
worked. Don't know what he's working on now.
Cheers

Saab engine would be cool - I especialy like their engine management - way
ahead of their time...
Not sure if you've seen this - but the SR20DET Nissan motor would be another
very nice engine to fit to it...

If I were to do the work of an engine swap though - I thing a nice LS3 or
similar all alloy V8 would be a very nice touch... :)
