Purple Tom 0 Posted June 26, 2013 Hi, I'm looking for a cheap as possible 8V/16V/G60 front subframe, crossmember and scrap engine mounts, if possible. This is to fit to a car that I'm breaking in order to also dispose of an 8V engine and broken gearbox that I can't even give away. I may as well bolt it into the car and get the extra scrap value from the weight of those parts. If anyone had anything then please let me know - doesnt matter about the condition , as long as it'll bolt on and support an engine. Cheers Tom Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rado mc 0 Posted June 27, 2013 Wierd that you can't shift it, you tried golf people? car is deffinately worth more broken than weighed in. I might have the cross member lying about and surplus mounts you could have, its in west yorks BD13 near Halifax if thats any use if you're ever passing. no posting sorry Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Purple Tom 0 Posted June 27, 2013 Yeah I've advertised it before - I may try it on eBay one more time before I weigh the car in. I was going to bolt it into the VR6 that I'm breaking, as in take the VR6 out, strip the shell etc then just shove the 8V and broken gearbox in to weigh it in. Thanks for the offer of the parts, I'll let you know on them :-) Tom Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dox 23 Posted June 27, 2013 Why not just throw the engine inside the shell? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Purple Tom 0 Posted June 27, 2013 Yeah, that's a possibility :-) I'll sort it one way or another! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dox 23 Posted June 28, 2013 How much for the 2E bottom end? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Purple Tom 0 Posted June 28, 2013 It's not a 2E, its an ADY. Give me a tenner and you can have the lot if you want it! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dox 23 Posted June 28, 2013 It's not a 2E, its an ADY. Give me a tenner and you can have the lot if you want it! I had a PM on another forum from a lad wanting a 2E for a scirocco project, I've linked this thread to him. Is the bottom end OK? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Purple Tom 0 Posted June 28, 2013 Yeah its fine, it only came out because of the TDi conversion. Never dirtied its oil and ran quietly and smoothly. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
