New kit any one

just confirming for everyone that this will fit from a ej81 all the way up to the modern turbo motors, it includes everything (incl fastners) to mate the ej motor to a beetle, type 3, kombi 1600, 1800 & 2l box and get drive.
all you'd then have to do is sort external motor stuff.... cooling, carb linkages/efi, exhaust, fuel supply, alt wiring, ect.

its ej20 / 22 , I have not tryed it on a ej81 ?
just think about how a vw blots on to a vw motor ,all the same bolts required , nut on to crank is the same .
the only subaru bolts are for the drive hub ( from auto flex plate ) and four for the motor to bolt to the adapter plate .
I dont think it would fit a 2ltr box ( dont have a box to try it too any way)

This means a modified flywheel is needed aswell , which bolts to the hub ?
stock VW fly wheel bolts on with Vw bolt

Hey Neil,do you have any close up pics of that bracket you have bolted to the auto bellhousing-just near the starter.Are you using it for an engine mount?
Auto mount
O there a spacer behind the plate to make bring it off the starter casting .
I taped the holes out in the auto housing to 10mm

The auto bracket is the * top mount * and the motor sits on the smaller one , I removed the subaru mounts used the bracket and welded my own pick ups .
the bushes large ones are toyota 75 series and the smaler 40 series .you need to run a sleve through the center so they dont crush up when you tighten the bolt .
My front mout for the auto is the same ( 40 series ) , all workes well .
most off road race cars have this type of set up .
I hope this helps , seagull

Very,very neat work you have done there.I assume the Toyota rubber bushes are from the spring shackles.I was going to use Valiant V8 front engine mounts there,but they are a bit bigger than the ones you have used.I don't know if the Toyota ones only on the bellhousing would be enough-I planned on letting the Type 4 hang out like a beetle does.Thanks for the pics-awesome.
O yes there from the spring bushes . I had planed only to run a Vw motor in this , but as The subaru is turn key , service is oly change the oil and clean the air cleaner well what more can I say .
I added the rear mounts due to extra weight of the subaru .
The mounts are neat and may never need to be replaced

You sold this yet???
seagull, are you bolting the type 3 auto into a beetle rear end or using a complete type 3 rear end?
Cheers,
Richard
Dero , I have stock
Richard , I used a stock vw type three rear end from a wagon .I have also used a super bug and cut the horns off .

very early shot
Looking for that special lady : PM me for coffee & cake
seagull check u2u. I am interested, although conversion is still very much in planning.
Thanks seagull,
I'm actually making a start on my trike (probably take a few years to finalise, so don't hold your breath).
Beetle horns sounds like a good idea, I didn't ralise how much the type 3 relyed on the body for support.
At this stage I'm happy to stick with complete type 3 running gear (motor, tinware, aotu, rear end).
Do you swap in beetle torsion bars for ride comfort?
Cheers,
Richard
🙂
No I just left the type three bars in >I put the trike up in the members rides in a few weeks for all to see and ask ? seagull 🙂
