KOMBI ENGINE & GEARBOX INSTALLATION UPDATE
Just blew my 2 litre kombi engine up on Sunday at dubs by the pub.
Need a good engine to replace it. Also thought I may as well put a 2 litre box in while I'm at it. I currently have a 1600 gearbox in it.
So anyone with a 2 litre engine or gearbox in Brisbane area let me know.

Made a deal on a new engine. Brought the 2 litre that was for sale by the bloke with the V8 Twincab ute at Dubs by the pub.
Just chasing a 2 litre box now and I will be back on the road again.

Picking engine up tomorrow and gearbox on Monday. Will pull out old engine and gearbox and install replacements during the week (with a bit of help
from 11Cab). Should be back on the road by next weekend for the Sunshine Coast Cruise.

Engine & box are in, but not to running stage yet. Having a break from it tonight and will be finishing off on Saturday. Will be running for
Sunday cruise. However, 41 degrees is predicted for Saturday and Sunday which is not ideal vw cruising temperature.
If it is 41 degrees I think I will just kick back in the airconditioning at home and having a few beers.
