306 cabby..

[webber77]

Dot know how much it costs, but loking through one of my old issues of Max Power, some bloke has put a Cosworth running gear and engine into his 306.Dont know if it'll work on a ab but it did ona normal hatch. Might be worth looking into, He said actually fitting the engine was hardly any trouble at all, i think the engine mounts are in near enough the same position. Just a thought on it

no i dont think it was, hehad to lengthen the drive shafts a little but it was an actuall 306 shell

the shell of a standard 306 is narrower so the shafts would have been shortened

tbh the easiest method is to chop the floor pan off and transplant the shell all day long

thats the one, i'm not saying its the only way to do it, i'm just saying thats the way the bloke done it.Gotta admit, it looked quite mean though
