yep under chass rad, no turbo though but still goes hard.
bled the system today she now runs cool between 80 and 90 deg c:thumb
the oil temp gauge was reading 120 deg c but i'm sure that its faulty as the oil on the dip stick is not hot to touch and i can touch the sump next
to the sender without burning myself.
so i cut the wire to stop myself worrying about it.

Great!
So Brazilian sliders are not the same as '70's German ones! I have seen the old ones were re-made for a while, but maybe not anymore.
Pity they're not like South African ones which can open front or rear.

thanks man
just the ej20 quad cam non turbo
it is just like driving a new car so smooth:P
i still love my vw motors and would never think about doing this to the split but for a daily driver with todays fuel costs etc this is a good way of
keeping the dream alive and have power to spare:thumb
and would prob take less then a day to go back to stock if need be.
