Subject:      Shifter linkage on a 1.9 to 1.8 conversion.
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"

Hi,  I am in the middle of converting my '84 Vanagon to a 1.8 8 valve VW
motor with the diesel mounting bits.  The Vanagon trans was converted
also using the diesel bellhousing.  When I put the shift linkage in it
appears its too long.  Is the fix simply shortening the shift rod coming
from the front where it connects to the u-joint?

Thanks,
