Pilot Bearing

Post by slam_dunk »

Am getting stuff together to convert 1.6na diesel to golf mk1 1.8 gti K.Jet engine. I have heard that I will need to use a pilot bearing/spiggot bearing for the end of the input shaft - can anyone shed any light on this and possibly vw part number or picture. Cheers.
