QUOTE(broomhandle @ Oct 30 2011, 01:58 PM)  also, could I not have a bus motor? ... any wise knowledge?? Well, they way you tell if you have a 914 _case_ or a bus _case_ is the dipstick tube. 914 has it on top, bus has it bolted to the flange at the back right corner. If there is a block-off plate bolted on, or that flange is otherwise plugged up it's a bus _case_. A tube can be added up top. A block-off plate or one of the bolt heads will almost certainly hit the motor bar unless it's really thin. This sounds terrible! I suppose it could be welded shut, but most hackers don't bother... |
