I figure with this Virus crap keeping me home (not working), I could save some shipping $ and take a road trip with the Flywheel, Crank, Pistons, etc... for my 2.0 build and have them balanced.
Anyone know of a good shop? Tennessee, North Alabama, Southern Kentucky, North Georgia? Do they need to be VW experts, or not, or just some history and knowledge of VW? Clark |

Quick google search turns up Shacklett in Nashville...they may be able to do it or give you a lead.
You'll want to have the fan, crank, flywheel & Pressure Plate all together to have it done well. Also check with Len Hoffman to see who he recommends--will make a nice road trip--enjoy! |
