Well, I didn't end up going to Bug Run… So I spent a few hours in the garage instead!



First off, a little shiny purchase for the shelf o´goodies. Stainless steel valve covers from Scat. I've heard good things about these, and since I've been eyeing Scat rockers as well, matching covers feel like a fitting choice, right?




The last parts I’ve been waiting for regarding the transmission were the throw-out bearing and the front HD transmission mount.






I also bought the rubber bushing that sits in the plate on the pan, but I ended up using the original rubber instead since it felt sturdier than the new one. (original on the right)




Once the transmission was in the car, I replaced both rear wheel bearings. The easiest way I came up with to remove the old ones was to weld them to long bolts and use a puller... A bit of a rough method, perhaps, but effective.






A lot of parts have been soaking in Evaporust since my last post...




All assembled on the car, with new shocks of course.





While I was back there, I also brushed off the old starter motor and tested the solenoid with a 12V battery. Seems to work, so we'll install it with cleaned contact surfaces for the wiring.





I now realize I haven’t taken many photos, but I’ve got it all on video. The next episode is coming soon! Only the brakes left. I started by digging through the boxes of parts and comparing what I have.





Below we see aftermarket, VW/NOS, and original.




I’ll probably go with the aftermarket pins and washer along with the VW spring.




Brushed off one of the rear drums and placed it along with the other small brake parts to be reused in Evaporust.




Now it’s just a matter of waiting… To be continued in a few weeks, I’d say.

Well got some Remmele heads upgrade. They came by online. Could not resist and bought them and send them to JPM for some valves and porting.
The heads that are on now are modified CU heads which flow well but did not upgrade them from 2.0L to 2.5L in valve size so they have a bit of to small valves for that combo (42x36).
So the Remmel heads have now 46x38 valves which hopefuly get me in the 200HP range... is kind off an obsession for me, then i can rest hahaha.

I bought a S&S 1 5/8 with a twin quite pack in the 1990's with one tube welded and 3 loose. I had asked for it to be suitable for a wide engine (86 stroke, B pistons) so maybe that is why?

that could be the answer I was lookig for, thanks! I'm just going to fix the one that I have now then.

thanks,
Glauco

This is a good project to rebuild never been hit front or back, but the rear apron is bent up on the bottom as pictured the front apron has some dents on the bottom of the clip but it is a very good clip. There is no rust except in the battery tray as pictured what you see in the picture is all that there is nothing else.
