need european engine info.

i need some net sources/links so i can find the good technical information on the engines VW dosent send here to the US. ive found a racing application that these engines would work great for and unfortunately the american larger displacement ones would not. (VW dosent get specific on their foreign websites)

mainly I need the following:
specs on the 1.0 and 1.4 liter engines (ie: cylinders and valve trains (valve sizes), bore/stroke, etc.) as well as any tuning companies that deal with modifications of these engines.

is the 3 cylinder turbodiesel the only 3 cylinder they make? or is there a gasoline 3 cylinder around somewhere? and if there is i would ESPECIALLY like specs on that particular engine too.

thanks for any help. any leads to someone who might know would be great thanks.

that would be great

that would be great...
i jsut cant find any info of any kind over here in the US about the VW offerings ovver there...at least anything technical...

mainly in my initial post is what i was interested in.
-the specs of the 1.0 and 1.4 engines. (cyls, bore x stroke/valves & valve size + any companies that have any modification experience of these engines, mainly jus tlooking at how breathable the heads are on them)
-anything at all on the 3 cyl engines...are they all diesel or do they make a 3 cyl petrol engine? and if VW does, i would love to hear the specs on those as well.l..

thats about all there is to it.
anything you could provide would be fantastic. thank you
-rob
