in my opinion I wouldnt go for either
i was going to use the mt75 box that came with my donor so built my chassis to take it then i realised that there will be probs with the propshft
so at that point I weighed it and weighed the type 9 i have(with rs bellhousing found the mt to be a fair bit heavier so im now usig the type 9
also when i took the g/box off the back of the 2.0 dohc engine i saw the horrific flywheel it must weigh a ton on its own
also its either a change to carb or modify/make your owm plenum.
so im using the 2.1 pinto that ive had at the back of my garage for ages
if you decide to use the aforementioned it is possible but a lot more work there is someone on here doing it but it is a headache
if you want a mt75 and a 2.0 dohc with loom and ecu you can have mine for a small price.
