Volks,

I bought an 83 air-cooled van to use as a body parts donor for my 84 Westy
and have some questions about powertrain parts swapability.

    1.  Will the windsucker fuel pump work on the waterboxer?

    2.  Will the 83 A/C propshalves work on the 84?

    3.  Will any of the engine control parts work?

    4.  Ditto alternator?

    5.  Ditto rocker arms, pushrods and lifters?


TIA,
John Houser, Jr.
84 westy
