| Ok, I read the post about building an aircooled diesel motor. I have an 81 Dasher with a 1.6 in it, this is the model that is mounted perpendicular to the firewall. I want to put it in my 68 Baja bug. Has anyone ever seen an old bug with a VW diesel? I know that there will be a weight difference, and that the diesel is a taller engine, and longer. Ane one have an idea about the transmission? bolt patterns? Is this possible? (I have friends who weld). Thanks in advance. |

| It is more than possible it's a good idea, I own a bio-diesel company and i am putting a TDI motor in my 63 baja. KENNEDY ENG makes a addapter plate for 400.00$ 661-272-1147 to bolt it right up good luck. |
