It wasn't that hard to do, physically.
The brainpower took a feck sight longer.
It works very well, trust me or ask a cheeky Fellow. But he doesn't know the reason why.

hello ElusiveStranger i have made a scoop from the information i have gained from this site
i fitted my engine 18 months ago did 3.500 miles in spain and have had no problems
a massive thankyou to all that gave me advice about my conversion
i have found it so much more cheaper on fuel and it gets me where i want to go
plus with the rjes exhaudt system it sounds amazing
i was like a big kid in the tunnels it sounds like a sports car
thankyou vwkd and a merry xmas _________________ 1978 twin slider panel van
