Mitchell Posted November 5, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 cleani could not get an ahw motor this morning so i got a bby coded 1400 from a recent vw and set about the task of retro fitting all the ahw parts, don't know if it's been done before but i think it will work and i took the risk. everything did fit and some parts were not needed at all.and fitted in place Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 Looking really smart mate. So is this motor a stop gap till the original 3L gets back on the road? Or is this the "one"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mitchell Posted November 6, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 6, 2008 well as of 10.35 it lives again, feels very tight and lively, so bby code engines do work as a replacvement for ahw as long as they are not from a golf. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IDGM Posted November 7, 2008 Report Share Posted November 7, 2008 well as of 10.35 it lives again, feels very tight and lively, so bby code engines do work as a replacvement for ahw as long as they are not from a golf. Well that's pissed me right off. I could have kept my Lupo and swapped away. Not being able to source a guaranteed AHW unit is what made me get rid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
