I have a 106 1.5d sat at home, the engines shot head gasket gone and water pump seized, I was wondering If any one has ever put a 1.9td 306 engine in one? I've been told it should work with Abit of work and 205 drive shaft
Any one have any ideas?

I had a phase 1 106 with a dturbo in, was kinda bodged as the driveshafts we're welded and it lasted me a whole hour before it went but yeah it's possible. Although I didn't make it, it did seen Abit of a squeeze
E: not sure if a s2 106 would be as easy?

I've been considering a 106 with either the 1.4 or 1.6 HDi lumps.

Don't bother to.much hassle just buy a 205 and do it to.that much easier and a hell of alot more room dare I say more than a 306? Was alot more room down back that's for sure.
