Aircooled VW South Africa

Thanks all. I am pleased that they came out well. I will probably remove the Z-bar this weekend and get it fitted - will let you know how I feel about it once it is installed.

I am in two minds about selling these. Aside from a few minor changes to make it easier to install, the plans are already available and I dont mind sharing them with the community here. People can then fab-up their own, and I would consider it my way of giving back after all of the help I have received from the folks here.

Else, if I can find a supply of leaf springs, then I could sell them without too much difficulty to anyone who is not willing or able to fabricate their own.

That looks awesome Simmy.. great Job man.

Boet Simmy,..you're a star! Most impressive !!!! you,ve done a great job!

Now you mentioned that you may share drawings of parts ?,......we are currently building a plastic porsche. ..for which there is a 2L golf engine waiting on the stand,..........Yes it's going watercool,.....but it's not my decision . With that amount of torque and horses available a CC will be required!......come to think about it ,..Haans the old goat ! Could do with some stiffening up too

Regards Haans

Thanks Haans! Sounds like fun... Water/air regardless! What model are you building up? A 356?

Happy to share what I have. Just drop a PM with your email address.
Also happy to send the template for a midmount if even more stiffness is required

Stiff enough for you Haans?

Overkill for my purpose !,......but will help in the plastic porche. Yea!!

Does the pivot in the centre make any difference ?

So how's this panning out simmy?
Excited to hear man?
