I have a 1980 air cooled automatic transmission Vanagon and want to fit a
1990-1997 Jetta or golf engine. Can someone give advice about this
conversion. Will the converted vehicle behave ok, I am especially thinking
about gear changes that can be affected by the difference in torque/rpm
between the Air coolled engine and the jetta engine. What are the best
places to buy Transmission-Engine fittings and engine-Frame brackets? For
me performance is not an issue. Reliability is.
