DeHanschke@AOL.COM writes about a 20V in a Vanagon...... << YOU WILL HAVE A FLAT POWER CURVE FROM 1200 TO 3200 RPM AND ABOVE 3000 RPM MORE THEN ENOUGH. ACTUALLY TO MUCH THE SUDDEN INCREASE OF POWER CAN HARM THE TRANSMISSION. >> << IN MY OPINION THE 2.6 L IS THE MOST POWER WHAT YOU CAN PUT IN THE VANAGON WITH OUT HAVING CUSTOMISED EVERY OTHER DRIVETRAIN RELATED UNIT.>> Hello Detlev! From the sounds of this I'm going to guess that this is a pmail from Michael Sullivan about his Syncro Westy?? If so, don't worry about his transaxle not being able to take the HP. I'll make sure of that!! -Todd Hill VolksWerks Transaxles Olympia, WA 360-412-0948 |
