Title: Original VW Conrod nuts vs aftermarket Post by: samotorsport on March 21, 2020, 18:47:59 pm As i am giving my 1600 cc some refresh work and a new cam i was thinking about the following . What do you guys prefer on stock conrods ? Original nuts re-used maybe with a drop of loctite ? Or going for aftermarket nuts like Febi for example ?
I read they always need to be replaced . Give me some advise please Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Title: Re: Original VW Conrod nuts vs aftermarket Post by: Bruce on March 22, 2020, 10:32:02 am Think of the millions of rebuilt engines using the original nuts. You don't need to put new ones on.
Where are the new ones made? Do you believe the seller or the packaging? The original nuts are made in Germany. Title: Re: Original VW Conrod nuts vs aftermarket Post by: samotorsport on March 22, 2020, 10:36:26 am You definitely got a point there .
Thats what i was thinking of as well , the new nuts might be cheap china stuff . The one s i ve got are at least original German , with some quality Loctite . My problem is , the more I learn and know about building engines , the more picky i get on stuff to make it 100 % perfect Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
