I was wondering.....why drop a '78 in there. If you use an '80 thru '83 you would have all the sheet metal to seal it properly. Secondly, sealing the top of the engine (cool side) from the bottom (hot side) is critical to all air cooled VWs. What was this guy (mechanic) thinking? Lastly, what are you doing for heat? Does the '84 have a gas aux heater or did you do some creative plumbing? Chris P. '89 Jetta Diesel '82 Oil Burner '82 BMW Twin
