Hell yeah. Nice work Audrey.

I’m glad Andy is going to handle the Subaru junk. I was not excited about that.

I think its a driver other than the engine.

Clean shop Peet is gone again? Bummer.

I'm at the age where "fuck off", "fuck you", and "fuck it" answer most questions.

Can someone at KCW post a picture of the engine.. how complete? Does it still have the wiring plugs? Known runner?

I’d recommend headgaskets, I do them on all my swaps. And can do em for ya.

Man this is gonna be fun, reminds me of when I went to Bens place for his subi swap. Just trying to double check everything before I book a flight.

andy…. 2 weeks ish come out?

[Andym]

#17358

That’s one of them AVCS subaru motors… I’ll just plug the cam advance shit, something to do with the oil pressure changes the cam timing.  them Honda kids call it vtech or something..

 

i think I’m gonna make an intake like I do for my type 3 swaps/beetle swaps. It’s simpler, less bullshit, and cleaner than that fat fucking intake.

 

Yea JJ I think 2 weeks ish i should be able to be in your shop. Going to start mailing shit to KCW this week.

Ok I’ll have a final answer here in the next couple days.. October 2ed to October 10th.

Heres my game plan,

First, headgaskets, water pump timing belt, and get it in the van.

Second. make my engine hanger, and exhaust.

Third, coolant.

lastly wiring.

then make JJ drive a subi swapped vw.. 😁

^^^^

also order a new pressure plate, clutch disk and t-o bearing. You guys can use whatever you want, buy it and I’ll use it.

 

Do these things have heater cores already in them? I’ve never done a vw this new.. the engine swap is no problem, I’m just thinking of the extras.
