Thanks camper, best of luck finding one, I suppose the 1600 one will fit too. I looked for info but could not find much.

Hi all, Have just bought an Aircooled 2 litre gearbox to put on my 86 diesel but am unsure of what linkage I need. Do I need the 2000cc linkage or will my existing do, if not where can I find the parts? (the box has a hydraulic clutch)
thanks

Hi have looked on the wiki about split charging- are they specifying a normaly open or closed relay? to work with the charging light wire?

Hi, I have the opportunity of getting my hands on a 4 speed gearbox from an Aircooled T25 (i don't know what size engine or gearbox code) for a AAZ conversion, my current engine is 1600 N/A diesel with a ABF box final drive 5.83. am i right in thinking that any Aircooled t25 box will have a beter fi...

Hi, Finally (i think) got all the bits for aaz conversion- but can anybody explain to me the charge boost? i cannot remember seing any connections between turbo and injector pump, also does the pump require any wiring? or do i just remove the existing pump switches?
thanks all

Sorry excuse etc but i thought that if i use the aaz with it's original turbo and manifold that i would have to have an exhaust made as none of the off the peg systems would fit.

Hi, going to fit my aaz with the original (to the engine) turbo and would like a stainless exhaust - anybody know of a maker that can do one without the van being present?
thanks

Thanks for the info, i bought my van in germany and the lad i got it from said that the turbo'ed versions had problems with 'cracking' after being shut down without a period of idle to allow the heat to dissapate- perhaps the fan was to help resolve the problem? I think a bit of mechanical sympathy ...

Thanks Harry, I think I will go with this. will let you know how it goes - could you tell me a bit more about the fan? as my van is a 1600 n/a there was no fan fitted

Hi, after a bit of thought I have decided to rebuild the aaz (earlier post) but does anybody have any experience with these ebay turbos? http://cgi.ebay.de/Turbolader-VW-Bus-T3-1-6-TD-DAS-ORIGINAL-NEU_W0QQitemZ8021557713QQcategoryZ61310QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem these seem to be new rather than remade. al...

Hi I have an aaz from an audi 80 that lay in the car for a few years without running, it started easily enough though no boost and loads of black smoke- wastegate was siezed open ( a couple of mm) and turbo has play in bearings ( not touching housing ) thing is I was going to buy a new turbo but am ...
