This VW Mk1 Gti 1.8 conversion has been done many years ago back when there was little info about online etc apparently (circ 1996), as such I am going back over it and double checking everything is OK. (Just checked fuel tank outlet was the 8mm not 12mm so changed that recently).
The gear box is a DU 4 Speed. If you look at this picture you can see there is no plate or cover to keep much off the flywheel. Is this an issue? I am worried muck will work its way in and possibly onto the clutch and generally cause problems? What cover do people use?
look for vw 020 gearbox upper cover plate. the $h!tplate doesnt cover that far out. the early mk1 and 2 020 gearboxes has a separate coverplate that covers that gap
everytime you masterbate god kills a kitten! member 1289 does this still mean owt?

I assume I will have to seperate the engine and box to install? Is it really worth the hassle?
