Turns out mk3 drive shafts are to long for a mk1
This left us in a spot of trouble but we got the mk3 inner cv's onto the mk1 shafts and they fit up fine into the mk3 hub. Had to cut a bit of extra length into the spline area to get the cir-clip other than that the spline is identical. Was worried for a while we would have to ditch the mk3 setup and it would have set us back in a big way but all good.
Radiator and hoses in tomorrow along with some oil and hopefully we can look at turning it over.
Will try and get some photos of progress tomorrow, I keep forgetting to take them.76 MkI 3 door - daily drive/project - 1.8 5speed
