Engine rotation direction
DPV2010 - January 25th, 2011 at 08:26 AM

I am looking at doing a conversion but need to know what direction vw engines rotate? So standing at the rear what way does it spin?
I'm doing a SR20 Na into my buggy... :)

clockwise, same as nearly all engines.

Only a handfull spin CCW, like old corvairs and some honduhs

awesome thankyoy, so im assuming that a sr20 rotates the same way?
I need to build the adaptor place and adapt the flywheel. Would the Conversion forums be better for info on fabricating a flywheel?
