Oh man!! You guys have that thing down to the shell nearly, I’m impressed! Keep up the good work, can’t wait to see the build back to “new”!

[@OlisGarage]

Thank you!! It’s been a process, but should be worth it. Engine went back in a few weeks ago!

[@gregl7597]

Hey...two questions...What kind of engine is that? Also, the extension you've made for the higher engine...do you have a video on it? Tell me more. I've just put in a Nissan Engine (called the QG18) in my Syncro, and need to make a similar extension for the engine housing.

It's a TDI ALH

@@jakefischer8281 Do you have a video on the engine cover raise?

[@jakefischer8281]

@@gregl7597 No it's usually done as a custom part of an install. Either the deck lid is modified or a whole raised area is added above the engine where the lid then goes.
