Howard, KEP doesn't make an adapter plate for the 5 cylinder Audi motors. As far as I know there isn't anyone who makes an adapter plate for this motor.

Also, the 2.2L "MC" motor has an external timing sensor that uses the Audi flywheel's timing marks for references. This is why you can't use this engine with the South African bell housing and flywheel as there is no provision for the timing sensor. The only thing that you can do with these motors is backdate the injection system to the 2.1L system of the early 80s so you could use it with the SA parts.

Hello List,

It took a few days for the car to get here, but its now here and ready to be parted out, or sold outright. As a reminder it is an excelent running 1986 Audi 5000 CS Turbo 2.2 lt 5 cylinder inter-cooled gas engine. This engine using a KEP engine adapter will fit in a Vanagon. The wheels will also fit a Vanagon, with some slight clearencing (grinding) of the hub center. The car has many usably options that the more mechinical minded could easyly install. Memeory driver power seat, 10 speaker amplified factory stereo, with the neat rear speaker block out for headphones, centeral locking system, doors, trunk, lighted grab handles, etc. Anyway please contact me off list for information, pictures, pricing, etc. at----- openwhel@bellsouth.net

Sincerely,

Howard
