Cary, I've done that! No real differences except, as you point out, the flywheel. Theonly other thing is the pilot bearing, which you may not have on the auto tranny engine. Actually, the engine I used had one - kind of a bonus.

Dear Listees: I was wondering if there were any differences in engines on 1985 vanagons between manual and automatic transmission equipped vehicles other than the flywheel. I am considering swapping an auto trans equipped engine into a manual trans equipped vanagon (same year) and was concerned about compatibility and parts required. Please respond to me at "chiang1@usa.net" . TIA!! Cary ____________________________________________________________________ Get free e-mail and a permanent address at http://www.netaddress.com/?N=1 |
