engine swap?

[CinqNorm]

Hi there i have a cinq 900cc and i want to put a bigger engine in it and not sure what will fit???
I have read that the 1.4 16v stilo engine will fit with a squeeze which is awesome but will a GT Turbo 1.4 8v fit? or a FIAT PUNTO GRANDE 1.4 8V ACTIVE SPORT ENGINE fit??
Thanks alot

Its not what will fit its what you can afford to fit.
Insurance and engineer's report
Brakes
Suspension
Engine and gearbox

Ideally find a Seicento 1108 engine or a Punto 1200 8V engine but you will need all of the donor electrical system and exhaust.

Do not use 16V much too heavy for a small car. The brakes must also be upgraded to suit.

Silo 1.4 16v will do fine, (lots of these in the Cinq/Sei section) but you're really starting from the wrong place. Even to fit a basic 1108 engine you'll need engine, gearbox, driveshafts, gearbox cables, exhaust. So, best bet, sell the 899 and buy a Sporting.
