wtf.. godammit.. teething probs my man.. we hopes..
nice one bob..cant wait till you drop around and show us.. hehe
baybuscamperkid ·
mmmm. i smell turbo. under chassis rad i presume?
kombibob ·
yep under chass rad, no turbo though but still goes hard.
bled the system today she now runs cool between 80 and 90 deg c:thumb
the oil temp gauge was reading 120 deg c but i'm sure that its faulty as the oil on the dip stick is not hot to touch and i can touch the sump next to the sender without burning myself.
so i cut the wire to stop myself worrying about it.

yo k/bob, what size engine have you slotted in and how did drivetrain cope with extra netties? thanks rob.
kombibob ·
hey rob
my bus is running with the ej20 2lt quad cam
the tranny is a stock 2ltbox and they can handle the extra power with no worries.

Hey, I never got to ask, but what are the sliding windows you have? (the middle sliders) They look very neat.

kombibob ·
thanks all

Great!
So Brazilian sliders are not the same as '70's German ones! I have seen the old ones were re-made for a while, but maybe not anymore.
Pity they're not like South African ones which can open front or rear. 👍

thanks man
just the ej20 quad cam non turbo
it is just like driving a new car so smooth:P
i still love my vw motors and would never think about doing this to the split but for a daily driver with todays fuel costs etc this is a good way of keeping the dream alive and have power to spare:thumb
and would prob take less then a day to go back to stock if need be.
