Now that was a great vid mate. Really does make me want to get back into a mk1 vRS and do the engine in it. Cant wait to see more

Cheers pal, they are getting easier to make. Thatll be the nostalgia kicking in mate 🤪😲. I'm a sufferer too 🤣

Great video Nick. I'm working on stripping the engine this winter. And great to see your using the AGU, obviously we spoke about the crank being forged 🙄 🤔on these but your build will give me all the information I need for my build.
@DecimalTenths5 жыл бұрын
Nice one cheers pal. It's a struggle getting everything into a 15 min video, which is about the length I like to make them. Hopefully the build should help you out too 😉. Looking forward to updates on yours

I’m pretty sure they make a crank lock tool that would save you some scrap lumber in the future. A must have if you are doing these a lot.

Nice one thanks pal, got lots planned so stay tuned. And remember, Rome wasnt built in a day! Do it right 1st time 😉

Just from the previous vids do you use mk4 golf engine side mounts for the gearbox side because I ended up using 2x mk4 engine side mounts for both mounts on the sides and do you need to modify the subframe at all at the minute the engine and gearbox fits pretty nicely but if I can get any advice I take what I can get and run with it 😂👍

Great vid, going through the same at the moment, next time your at B&Q replacing your piece of wood get a MAP Gas Torch and heat that crankbolt, come off a breeze then.

Great videos hooked on them at the moment. Got myself a BAM engine to put in a T4. Stripping the engine is beyond me but do any of your videos show what Gremlins to look out for?
@DecimalTenths3 жыл бұрын
Hi cheers, glad you like em. Suppose there's plenty of gremlins to look out for... I tend to only make videos of thing I do though, not really for educational or instructional purposes. It's a good idea though 👍

Hello mate, I’ve been after an engine for ages now for my mk1, why does everyone say I need to get the Agu ? What’s so special about it ?
@DecimalTenths4 жыл бұрын
Years ago people used to misguidedly think they were stronger due to having 20mm wrist pins. However that's simply not true. In terms of conversions and tuning they are the worst as they have narrowband fuelling. In terms of conversions id always pick a wideband engine, preferably a k04 so AMK, BAM. But a k03s version such as AUM and AUQ are just as good.

@@DecimalTenths well I’m finally in the position to buy an engine, my local scrapyard have got a tt in, code bup, What should I keep with the engine ? It’s going into a mk1 golf hopefully, be a while yet though, could I get the engine and box just to clean/ change gaskets, then get what ever I’ll need for when the time come to the swap ? Or do I need to keep parts that are integrated with that engine ? Thanks adam

What sort of power/torque will bam rods take
@DecimalTenths4 жыл бұрын
It's generally recognised that 300lbft of torque is the max for standard 1.8t rods. There is no guarantee as a lot of it is down to the hardware, and final mapping. I wouldnt personally go beyond stage 1 (270bhp, 300lbft) levels.
