flusted 0 Posted February 9, 2008 heres some progress pics of my 16v g60 conversion Ive decided to pull my 8v lump out and replace with a 16v. Progress so far Todays summary After id just ripped the bumper off The 8v lumps last few moments before being taken out Charger off and slam panel etc And its out! Took about 2 hours, just need to paint in under the bay and sort the wiring out which is tommorrows mission. Heres some progress pics of block Heres the engine straight out of a 16v corrado 1.8 139bhp This is where i need to drill the block for oil return from the charger oil return fitted sump off New windage tray Bummer, it fouls the oil pump, out with the grinder It fits! just removed a bottom pulley from a 1.4 mk3 golf and its pretty much perfect alignment with the other pulleys! No need to shave 6mm off!!! :smartass: g60 on left, mk3 1.4 on right pic of the mk3 1.4 bottom pulley, i think i might actually sit in too far? My belt arrangement using a vr6 alternator mounted under the charger then a few cam belt tensioners here and there when the original tensioner is pushing down on the belt, it does actually spin the water pump pulley, although it doesnt look like it in pic. My alternative way of re-using the original water flange thaat houses the sensors for ecu and dash, just need to make a blank for the open end. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
flusted 0 Posted February 17, 2008 Just picked up a CTN code gearbox from passat TDI, should allow much better traction and higher top speeds in every gear heres the block with gearbox fitted got it sat in the bay had to cut the rad support for clearance for alternator Stacked head gaskets Head on Got my flipped inlet, here it is I decided to cut up an old manifold i had, and cut the logo off to then glue on the new manifold so it looks more oem Where the top part of the manifold has been flipped over and welded, the throttlebody flange needs re-shaping as the small and big butterflys are now different sides. heres what material needs taking off I also took out this large lump that looks very restrictive for number 1 runner, and then match ported the throttlebody to the manifold Here it is fitted need to move the coil down slightly to add more clearance for the throttlebody pipe. Just got to route the boost hoses then put the front back on Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
