Hi Volks,

I have some diesel parts for sale, as i have found there may be some
trouble attaining smog legality in calif. if I go ahead with this Jetta/GTI
motor swap. My loss could be your gain, however...

All parts are from an 85 vanagon diesel.

For Sale:
motor mounts- left and right with cross strap
oil pan
oil pump
oil fill pipe and dip stick
exhaust manifoldwith pipe to muffler and bracket
flywheel and clutch
some hoses
hardware
I do not have the beelhousing, as there was no trans with it.  But as this
post shows, there is a kep adaptor.

Please email me if you are interested.

Dan Belick
