5spd manual transmission

Post by BlueDog »

I have a different 1.6l engine I want to install into my 89 Jetta. It is a mechanical one and the old one that is in the car now is a hydraulic. The old engine is tired with about 400,000 miles on it. The mechanical engine tests out with great compression numbers. Question is: will the current 5spd transmission bolt up to the mechanical 1.6 the same as to the hydraulic 1.6?
