Bealieboy 1,625 Posted March 10, 2015 Report Share Posted March 10, 2015 Hi guys, more picking of the collective club brain. This time it's to do with fitting of a 2.9 into the green goddess. I've sourced a recon rado lump with 40k miles for less than a top end rebuild. Any thoughts anyone? Link to post Share on other sites
c00k 435 Posted March 10, 2015 Report Share Posted March 10, 2015 Tell me where it is and I'll buy it! Haha Nah, jump on it mate, sound like it could be a bargain. If they have receipts to prove rebuild. Link to post Share on other sites

Mk3highline 287 Posted March 10, 2015 Report Share Posted March 10, 2015 You can use the obd2 head that's on the car??Still get the bottom end balanced it will Rev happyer What's gonna be happening with the 3.2 mk3? Link to post Share on other sites
Bealieboy 1,625 Posted March 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2015 (edited) I wasn't going to split the old 2.8 as there's not a great deal wrong with it. I thought by getting the 2.9 I'd not have to rebuild the 2.8 head?! The 3.2 is going to be a long term project, once that's running nicely, I can take the green goddess off the run and tinker with that one. The 3.2 is highly retro. It will stay as it left Scott's Vw of London. Edited March 10, 2015 by Bealieboy bennyk 1 Link to post Share on other sites
