heavy is good. no send them out to be powder coated or sumsuch.
as for a LT6cyl used in volvos those were straight six and don't fit length wise..
the 5cyl does squeek in, stays VAG engine management for my own sanity and on the road diagnosis of issues.. I have a nice low miles (80K low for a 5cyl they regularly hit 300K+) and some great insightful chat with a fellow who's already blazed his own path and Mfg'd and installed the same into his syncro westfalia.
I'll keep my old used heaterboxes around in case LDD>

Here it is. The complete exhaust system from heater box to tailpipe ready for installation. Brings a tear to my eye. It will go in Sunday.

That's just too SWEET for that salty NY. Save it for when you do the real rustoration to the van. Then it will never see the salt again. It is just too pretty to be used in that way!
BTW: Lube the hell out of it with anti-sieze when you do assemble it for real. _________________ "Use the SEARCH, Luke" But first visit the Vanagon FAQ!
