My son came home with a vw engine with engine code DH 004385. I can't find the code to tell me what it's from. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks

Dang that was quick! I was only kidding but I'm not that interested in water cooled , maybe the tranny if it can be swapped onto an air cooled bus. I'm new to air cooled. Have had several w/c gti's and am burned out on them. My son has his first baja and that's how we came by the engine and tranny- he snagged it from a warehouse cleanout and figured he might be able to use it but... I guess I'll have to find the numbers on the tranny and go from there. Otherwise there'll be an engine for someone to pick op near Sacramento and maybe with a tranny. I don't know the engine size or if any of the parts could be cannibalized for his air cooled 1600.

Is is a complete engine and trans? I would think if it is a waterboxer engine you would be able to tell the difference :? :P

How about a picture of the beast?
