   The VTS is kinda rare here in Finland ( I think here's one or something ) so I decided to use peugeot 1.6 GTi engine (same as the vts) Would it fit right away in 1.1i non vtr/s? If not what kind of modification I'm expecting ? What about the engine bracket and such of things...
   
   Thanks

   You will need to weld in a new panel for the engine mount on the right hand side of the car. (UK driver side)
   
   There are also mod's to do with the fuel lines and fuel tank... rear axle if you want rear disc brakes...
   
   It's a pretty straight forward conevrsion really.
