Lads,
Not being fully versed on everything VW, I was curious if the a 2.0 Bus engine and a 2.0 914 engine are the same......Or, will a Bus 2.0 bolt right into a 914. Air cooled of course.

Also 1.7 and 1.8 while you are at it.

Thanks bunch.

Mike

Sarcastic remarks welcome, I like the humor

The T2 case will have 3 bosses around the oil pump for the engine mount. If a regular case is used, an adapter would be needed.

The 2X relief is based on year not type.

The type 3 motor has a cooling fan setup like a T4 .

Cooling tin for any of these motors would need to be extended so it seals to the 914 body. This is critical to prevent hot air from recirculating into the engine compartment.

I just looked at a 2056 , 2270 and 2563 engine kit that includes everything except a block / tin / cooling / ignition / fuel . These are $ 9,400 to $ 9,800 for 120 to 190 HP, I don't know what a T1 will cost to build but is has to be way less these days.
