Send us the case, crank and rods and we'll do a beautiful job. We need your crank and rods to do the job right, unless we're supplying them.
We do the job entirely by hand, removing only the minimum amount of metal, keeping the engine case as strong as possible. When building an engine with a longer stroke crankshaft, the engine case needs to be opened up for the additional swing of the crankshaft and connecting rods. Not by a machine that removes more metal then necessary! We can supply the fittings, hoses and filter mount if you need them.Ĭlearancing for Longer Stroke Crankshafts Done By Hand Include your oil pump and we'll modify it as needed for free. We'll clean the case for $30.00 and machine it for full flow for $40.00, plus shipping back to you. Pack your case in a box and send it to us. Adding a full flow oil filter system increases the life of your engine simply by keeping the oil clean. A full flow oil filter system sends all of the oil through an oil filter before it goes to the bearings. The stock VW engine doesn't have an oil filter, only a screen. This is the best investment you can make in your VW engine. We'll clean the case for $30.00, remove the studs for $20.00 and install the case saver inserts for $80.00, plus 16 inserts for $24, plus shipping back to you. Pack your case in a box, (you can take the head studs out or leave them in), and send it to us.
If you have 10mm that have stripped out or haven't yet, we can install Time-Sert locking thread inserts to make the studs stay in and the heads stay on tight and not leak. The cost is only $20 with align bore job and ensures the cam won't bind on the center journal.Ĭylinder head studs were made in 10mm and 8mm sizes.
Sometimes the center gets warped and this process makes it straight again. We machine the center cam bore true with the ends. We'll clean the case if needed and machine it as needed, plus shipping back to you. You can leave the head studs in or take them out. $25Ĭlean case $30-$50 depending upon condition. Thrust cut custom size with bearing to match. Align boring will hold those bearings tight and keep the oil pressure going to the bearings where it's needed. If there is a ridge on any of the main bearing journals that you can catch your fingernail on, then your case needs align boring. The Fox is a popular choice for buyers looking for a low-cost hatchback, the sturdy Polo fits into the supermini bracket, and the Beetle will always turn heads.Click here for Shipping Information on machine workĮngine Case Align Boring & Thrust Cutting.
The Golf remains Volkswagen’s best-selling model, but its full range has proved enduringly popular in the used car market. Since then, Volkswagen acquired Audi and was able to bring the manufacturer’s expertise with front-wheeled drive cars into its range, producing winning models like the Passat, Scirocco, Golf, and Polo. Just 20 years later – in 1955 - the one millionth beetle rolled off the production line. Post-war, beetles started to be produced for the British Army, keeping the factory alive and helping it become the world’s third largest motor vehicle manufacturer. The first Volkswagen – the car that came to be known as the beetle - came to market in pre-war 1935 Germany, the brainchild of famed German engineer Ferdinand Porsche.
