Caddyslammed 16 Posted November 12, 2010 Report Share Posted November 12, 2010 Right, does anyone know the differences between the vr6 engine of a sharan compared to a golf, can I rebuild the sharan engine to go into my golf or are there real differences in the block/mountings/inlet etc? Obviously I will source all the other correct ancillaries and brackets that are golf specific but just wondering if there are any fundamental differences? Thanks Link to post Share on other sites
Dave_ciw 507 Posted November 12, 2010 Report Share Posted November 12, 2010 The Sharan has a liquid cooled cylinder head with extra ports for the cooling system to flow. There is also extra breathers on the manifold of the Sharan. The blocks are the same AAA but the heads are different. Link to post Share on other sites

Caddyslammed 16 Posted November 12, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2010 hmm interesting, i have just found out the donor car i am getting for the engine (p reg golf vr6), and eventually break, is just too good to break so i am looking for a vr6 golf engine now, i saw a sharan engine up on ebay for 99 quid, thought it was too good to be true.
