Subject:      1.8T Motor for Vanagon
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"

I have a complete 1.8T motor for sale.  This motor came out of a 1999 Passat
and has been prepped for installation in a Vanagon.  The motor has only
17,000 miles on it.  This motor is complete with A/C compressor, P/S pump,
Alternator, and all wiring and plumbing necessary to install it into your
vanagon.  It is completely stock but with some minor mods can deliver over
250hp.  In stock form it delivers 150hp @5700 rpm and 155 ft/lbs of torque
@1750-4600 rpm (a whopping 3950 rmp powerband!!!).  I have ordered the
conversion kit from Fast Forward but have only received the flywheel and
bellhousing converter thus far.  The wiring harness has been modified to be
plug and play compatible with the Vanagon.  The harness and engine cradle
will be delivered soon.  The price for the motor is $3,000 US and the price
for the conversion kit is $1,200 US.  For less than the cost of a full
rebuild you can have a modern, reliable and potent powerplant.  Please
respond directly to cankeny@ll.net as I am off list.  The motor is located
in Minneapolis, MN.
