another engine number question


Hey guys,

I know that there are a few threads on engine numbers already, and a few web sites elsewhere (see below), so sorry if I have overlooked something obvious.

http://www.type2.com/library/identifi/modvar.htm 
http://type2.com/bartnik/enginecodes.htm 
http://www.aussieveedubbers.com/forum/viewthread.php?tid=21510#pid160676 

There are also some engine numbers listed in the Haynes manual I have.

However, I can't seem to find info about where an AS engine is from. Some guy selling a Kombi says it has a 2litre engine, with the code AS306852 (melb trading post - anyone know it? Warragul) The only info I have found suggests that this is a beetle typeI engine, and a 1600 at that. Or a "replacement case", huh?

Anyone have any ideas as to what's going on? I don't know if the engine number quoted is from the fan shroud or the engine block.

Thanks folks, Aurel

Sometimes new brazilian/mexican cases come without engine number so sometimes they are stamped with a Police number. The ones I've seen usually start with PC

"AS" is usually a late 1600 upright engine, with an AS21 thin stud case.
