A adaptor kit with a flex plate not a flywheel.

HeHeh....i agree except that you are lifting the degree of difficulty and expense by a factor of ten! I actually bought an EA something or other to put in my beetle....but by the time i get around to it we'll all be putting electic motors in:smilegrin:

I would love to go that way BUT I don't have the money to buy the engine plus have it fitted but at a later date will be going that way.
And I have a good EA81 motor sitting here so it is only the cost of the adapter kit.

Rocknrob

if it is for a Ea81 and for bolting up to a auto box with the flywheel and the spacer for between the plate and flex plate how much do you want for it?


Chris

I got the engine and adapter lit for $800.00 and spent another $200.00 fitting it up.
