Introduction
Here is the latest addition:
My Panda was a 85 C reg with 903cc 45hp engine with 4 speed gearbox and 2 wheel drive. Panda 45CL
Don't have any pics as far as I know but will look. It was a total nail and disintegrated around me but I loved it, it was so much fun to drive and so easy, It got through really heavy snow and never got stuck once.
Was my first car, replaced with a Yugo 45. Also 903 45hp 4 speed.
...@pandimonious_maximouse- Do you have a SEAT Marbella catologue? One with parts and such in? If I had one of those it wouldn't be so hard finding parts.
I would put a bonnet scoop on if you put it there and possibly a bit of ducting to make sure the incoming air covers the entire inter-cooler.
Lots still to sort out there Si, but it sounds like you're enjoying it, and you had a bit of sunshine! Watching with even greater interest now.
CLXCraig said:The IC would be better mounted at the front imo. you dont want anything behind it restricting airflow, plus you want a nice cold feed. Is the no any room where to original marbella rad was? or is that behind where the new one will be?
903cc have full width radiator or half width?
well there'd still be the problem of finding one of the other three remaining Y10 turbo engines out there (rough estimate)Now if this transplant was easy everyone would be doing it, and that wouldn't do would it!
Hope this solution works for you, but if not, an alternator from an old Honda or at least something Japanese may be a good bet as they tend to be small. I say old because you need the V pulley of course.

CLXCraig said:for the sake of finding a y10 turbo it would be easier cheaper to do a 1242 turbo conversion. still bloody expensive!
