Subject:Vanagon Diesel Parts and Motor FS $800
Date:Mon, 23 Aug 1999 09:54:39 EDT

I had decided to put a I-4 engine into my '85 Vanagon.  However I have
changed my mind and I am putting a waterboxer back in there (just cheaper and
I can't spare the time right now for the conversion).  So I have a complete
Diesel Vanagon setup to sell with a new clutch with most of the stuff already
mounted onto a 1.8l Scirocco engine (JH) that has 100k miles on it and was
reportedly running well before I started the conversion.
So here is what I want to do.  You can have everything and the engine for
$800.  If I have to take the stuff off of the engine (which I don't want to
do) it will be $700.
I will include the bellhousing and input shaft you need to convert your
waterboxer tranny over to use it in the conversion.
The engine was a good A/C compressor on it, a OK condition alternator (needs
voltage reg), wiring harness, distributor, computer, fuel injection setup
with fuel distributor, intake, and exhaust manifold (you can have the diesel
one and the Jetta one that I bought to replace it).
I also have the diesel starter, the water hoses, the engine carriers and
motor mounts, oil pan, pick tube (already installed on engine) pretty much
every thing you need to do this conversion.  All of this will go for $800.
I can put this on a palate and ship it if you want (you pay shipping) or you
can come here to southern NJ and pick this stuff up.
Thanks
