Reverse engineering!
Not my friend, for i guy like me, it take me a few hours to understand
and copy everything there is to know!
There is nothing special about Subi conversion, you can now buy almost
everything from Small Cat or/and Kenedy... and Vanaru for the cooling
system... BUT, there is a big but here, the same BUT for putting
together a VW engine!
How to do it the RIGHT way... and that is everything! a guy can put 2
part together and they will last for 20 years, another one, for 2
minutes... this is simply the conclusion!
Subi have been in VW for years... sadly, some backyard mechanic made
them look bad... company like Vanaru made them work and look perfect.
Who i'm to judge!
One thing i have learn in life.... respect! Men, i'm full of it.
We all own not so perfect vans... but with a lot of life still in it,
this what my picture are all about... they are not showing a perfect van
on the background! A very good system and engine in a moderate condition
van.
But that is not the way people like to see things.... they want to see
perfection. pfffffffff..... that doesn't exist! sadly!
Let's say that 50% of the van owner are realistic... the other 50% are
dreamer.
Have no worry, i will keep buging you with that stuff for a wile. Just
wait and see.
