Leather gloves are your friend. :) If you do the whole aluminum shroud, I'd love to see pics of it. Maybe it's been discussed, but what about 2 (or as my as...
I ,Al Frankin, have experienced mediocre performance from pusher fans. Suckers work more efficiently and don't divert natural air flow when not running. What...
I remember autoxing my 16v passat wagon, and seeing the temp gauge at about 230 after a run, on a 50 degree day in spring. It has functional dual fans and...

I have several pairs of leather work gloves - albeit from Harbour Freight which means that they're 1) thinner than latex gloves and 2) falling apart BEFORE the...
... Yup. A guy I know could not explain it to me - why fans work so much better as "the locomotive" or "suckers," but summed it up with "what's easier -...
I am looking for a source for an underdrive pully for a 16V. I have deleted the Power Steering and AC. I am using the single waterpump pully off of a 1985...
Good luck!! Unorthodox Racing used to produce an underdrive crank pulley but they've ceased production. I sent them an email and the response was actually...
Matthew, Thanks for your response. I suppose if my hand were forced I could go with the Euro Sport setup. That means converting to Serpentine belt. Can you...
I can make a few underdrive pulleys if anyone is interested. I am very reasonable. Say $125 each. Geoff ... From: redrckt To: vwautox@yahoogroups.com Sent:...
