Just blew my 2 litre kombi engine up on Sunday at dubs by the pub.
Need a good engine to replace it. Also thought I may as well put a 2 litre box in while I'm at it. I currently have a 1600 gearbox in it.
So anyone with a 2 litre engine or gearbox in Brisbane area let me know.

Made a deal on a new engine. Brought the 2 litre that was for sale by the bloke with the V8 Twincab ute at Dubs by the pub.
Just chasing a 2 litre box now and I will be back on the road again.

If you can't laugh at yourself you can't laugh at anyone else! Because life is to short not to LAUGH
Engine & box are in, but not to running stage yet. Having a break from it tonight and will be finishing off on Saturday. Will be running for Sunday cruise. However, 41 degrees is predicted for Saturday and Sunday which is not ideal vw cruising temperature.
If it is 41 degrees I think I will just kick back in the airconditioning at home and having a few beers.

A huge thank you to 11Cab who is an absolute legend. Tought me heaps and couldn't have done it without him:thumb
