jish - got a 73 kombi - with 1600 - the 1600 is fritz - will this fit in without too much trouble - what tinware etc will I need to get?

wiseoldub · 9 Jul 2006, 10:27 am

it should bolt straight in with the gear i've got here!. i have the extra tinware and a new standard german exhaust [price that new!] you may have to swap your clutch over but from memory they are both compatable![1800 and 1600] but i will throw in both to make sure! how is airlie these days? i used to be bosun on the solway lass operating for southern cross sailing adventures about 4 years ago! was there for 2 years or so! loved every minute!! there is a guy in mackay that does dubs too! not much of a talker to start with , but a great bloke when you get to know him!! talk about aus history and planes and u will be there all week!

i use the 1800 flywheel on my t4 in my bug. so thats to a standard 1600 box

barls · 9 Jul 2006, 8:49 pm

no the 2L will not fit with out clearancing the bell housing which would leave it extremely weakened.

wiseoldub · 13 Jul 2006, 11:23 am

price drop!!! now $300 , as its annoying me now! its taking up room and i would rather sell it than move it into my new workspace!
anyone?
cheers josh

just got told that my add reads like the engine is incomplete. not so. one engine is all together and one is bottom end and bits and pieces! just thought i should add that little detail to help things along a bit!!!

What did the motor come out of Josh.

I need to ask my mechanical genius if it would fit into my '68 Beetle?

barls · 31 Jul 2006, 6:23 pm

it would be a t4 1800 ie out of a kombi. it will bolt in but will need to be converted to upright. its a nice size for a bug as it doesnt require an engineers. i would had one of these instead of the 2L if i could of found one at the time

wiseoldub · 2 Aug 2006, 6:15 pm

motor came out of a kombi, 76 i think. wont go into a beetle without a conversion from sherman[plug]!
i think this may be sold!
cheers josh
