We’re doing a simple engine swap in 48 hours. Our Mk3 VW Golf “Norman” (or "Normie") makes about 100 horsepower, so we’re dropping in a 2.5L 07K five-cylinder from a newer VW to double the power and finally make this thing quick. It’s a full weekend of pulling the old motor, prepping the new one, wiring, and trying to get it running before time runs out. What should we do next??
