Dansk is currently in the development process of engine tins. They are investigating the differences between the tins of all the model years and also having to consider the task as it relates to their current tooling of VW products.

Along the line of engine tin discussion are pieces #11 and 12 necessary for cooling purposes or are they just protective?

I think I have some of the lower tin pieces that's off a 1974 1.8 motor. Question from the experts? Is i.8 tin the same as 2.0?? Tom The only difference in the tin is #1 and #2 have different locations for the spark plug holes on a 2.0 vs a 1.7/1.8. The rest of the parts interchange. |

That is your air injection system. The one way valve is cut. This is smog equipment. It looks like the air pump that feeds it is in the box below it. Thank you for the info will throw that away since no one would want to include that in the rebuild (IMG:style_emoticons/default/w00t.gif) |

I have a few pieces #'s 5, 5A, 17 & 24 of a 1974 1.8 motor if tshid914 needs them. See photo Tom Michigan Attached thumbnail(s) |

See photo Tom Michigan Thanks Tom in Michigan, after you sent me those pieces I found the others except for #32 and 33 in my shed. They will be cleaned and wire brushed then surface rust will be converted with VHT rust converter then painted with POR15 |

When you put the tin back on REMEMBER, pieces 5 and 5a need to go on before the pushrod tubes are installed. Zach If Jake & team were able to make those 2 pieces out of composite, then call me impressed & I could fully understand the large sum. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) On the flip side I seriously doubt those are included in the kit which makes the cost that much harder to swallow. |
