engine adaptor for subaru EJ20 2.0l turbo to Type 1 beetle
Hi guys,
I am new to the forum and impressed!!!
I own a VW type 1 beetle from 1975 1303s.
I have 99.999999lol% completed an engine conversion to a subaru 2.0L turbo using my original type 1 transmission. I want to use a 200mm kennedy stage
2 pressure plate but I also need an adaptor plate and 200mm flywheel to fit. I want to order this as soon as possible. Does anyone know any companies
in Australia that could supply this? I live in the united kingdom and have tried DS tuning in Germany and Kennedy in the States direct but both have a
long back log so cos i want it quickly im thinking australia.. Also if you guys know any companies other than DS Tuning in Europe and Kennedy in
states that would supply then that would be really great too....can you guys help, you know how it is you spend ages doing a conversion and you jus
wanna drive it about!!
cheers
Dan

Hi Dan,
Very nice 1303 you've got there!
I know of this dutch company that sells adapter plates:
Delta Revisie
Click on "Pasplaten" for a couple of pictures.
It could be that they don't make their own adapter plates, but I don't know. I do not have any experience with them or their products. But you could
always phone them. They will probably understand and speak english.
This company is located on the dutch island Texel.
Good luck!
Greetings,
Gerrelt.
