I got the camshaft from a place called Delta cams webpage It was about $40 total for me that included getting the pushrods done too. I dont know what the Normal cost was that was with my dealer discount.
Well today completly sucked for putting the motor back together. I got to work and was all pumped to get going then i realized that i was missing a valve cover retainer or what ever they are called. that big spring clip. I hat one but for the life of me cannot find the other one. So after tearing through everything to find it I just got all pissed and called it a day. Im hoping that i can find a replacemnt with out going to junk yards. Is this something that a Parts store might carry? |

Those valve cover bales are everywhere...you just have to know where to look.
Not likely to find one at a Kragen or Pep Boys. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) Try a local VW repair shop and beg one. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif) A club member in you area will likely be a buddy. trekkor |

QUOTE(Bullet @ Apr 17 2004, 05:25 PM) I have yet to ride or drive in one of theese "gokarts" so i have no idea of what to expect on performance. But i have sat in it and pretended to drive it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) I am really anxious to hear this thing run and see it move on its own power. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) That's about all the seat time I have ever had too. A 10 minute test drive (with the PO in the car) and twice around the parking lot before I tore it down is all I've ever driven one. With nothing to compare it to, I don't think I can be disappointed as long as it runs. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |

Welcome to the board.
Your energy is great to hear about. If you get it together in 5 hours or 5 days, it will beat most of us who are at the 5 month time frame. The board is a great group of guys(male and female) and are very helpful in providing guidance and knowledge. Peace, L. McChesney |
