The BGs came with either a SOHC 1,8L or a DOHC 1,8L both BP blocks I believe so the conversion should be relatively straight forward.
Half cut your looking around 2000ish depending on the condition of the wreck and motor. If you use the stock goodies you can prob do it for about 3K+
Price goes up from there.
Im doing a conversion in a BA Astina and im hitting around 7-8K so far (which includes a half cut purchase and a spare gearbox). I have alot of extra stuff which will be revealed soon.
My workshop is charging a ballpark figure of 3.5K but im getting a fair bit of custom work done and also includes dyno tuning.
Set a budget and stick to it. Allow 1K extra for uncertanties.
