Oh, my bad then, didn't know 205 and 309 engine bays differ. Here are couple of topics about 205 V6 the engine had to be removed if the sparkplugs ever need changing http://forum.205gtidrivers.com/index.php?showtopic=26675&hl=v6%20205&st=0 This one is actually twin v6 http://forum.205gtidriv...

Well You are right about the front part, but check how much clearance they have a the back. There is a topic about V6 conversion into 205, but as I wasn't interested in conversion myself I only briefly checked the progress. You can check how they did it, but I believe BX has pretty small engine room...

Predictable...

205's engine bay is bigger than Bx's anyway, but it's nice to know for sure!

Thanks

I'm not 100% sure it will fit, I'll let You know when I'll experiment with mine. But retaining smaller flywheel is a bonus, less rotat...

If so, which Saab are You saying? 900?

Adding a better material (more traction) on the clutch and retaining stock pressure plate should do the trick for 300Nm+

Superchargers are a bit expensive, otherwise i had bought one. No they are not!!! I can get M45 quite cheap Preferably a Rotrex then. You don't want Rotrex any near Your engine! Rotrex is a belt driven turbo and posesses all bad things from turbo and SC world. Wait until they come up with CVT on Ro...

Jup, they are getting rarer and rarer over here as well, all 16 valves are parked in my garage anyway, but it's even hard to see an ordinary one.
