Renault 5 gearbox into ?????
I'm in the process of converting my R5 GTt into RWD and have a standard R5 gearbox lying around. The code JB5001 9818971 020. I was wondering if anyone would know of any other engines that would mate up to this 'box? Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

If I could get me hands on one of them Volvo turbo engines that would be gift. I definitely want a turbo engine again. I've read about lads chopping the subframe out and popping it in the back but I gave away my turbo engine to a mate who needed it more than me 
I know mid mount would be a lot of work but it should handle better in the long run I suppose.
