BWS is R36, BLV is passat and BHK is Toureg.
If you want a 3.6 engine let me know.

Yeah car runs fine thanks. Just running N/A for now which is a handful in itself. Might have more of an update in a month or so.
-
Have you looked at the 24 valve engines? 2.8, 3.2 and 3.6s.
280-290 hp with a standard R32 running Emerald or a 280-290hp 12v running 8 psi with either a turbo or supercharger. I know which one I would go for everytime.
If you work out the costs involved going the turbo route properly to get the reliability its a no brainer.

Whats wrong with your box to need a rebuild? Shims, some bearings and syncros are dealer only. I would offer to do it but I need to build another one for myself first.

storm have a haldex mk2 r36 running dont they? give em a call
No John its a Syncro, no need for Haldex as its still only N/A, amazing car though!
-
Have you tried contacting the supplier to see if he will send you one?
-
What brand is it?
-
How many of you have ever been out in a Rotrex charged car though?
-
Are they for a N/A or boosted application?
-
Are you sure the syncro stuff will take the power/torque?
-
CCM (Golf VR6 02A) and CHN (Corrado VR6 02A) are the boxes to look out for.

If you want to make a 12v engine bulletproof you need to spend a fair bit of money. I spent thousands on mine forged rods, pistons etc and the head gasket still let go twice at 25+psi.
Have a look to see what you can buy a 3.2 engine for?
-
I hate to say it but 8.0:1 is just too low, 8.7:1 is as low as you want to go really.
-
We have done 5 or 6 MK3 R32 conversions at work in the past month and they all made between 280 and 290 hp, the economy is still reasonable also especially for a daily driver! I really do think you should consider going to the 3.2 its just a much better engine all round.
-
How much do you want to spend mate? How much power are you aiming for?
-
Are the 2 plugs that are sooty, damaged in anyway?
-
Ive used cellulose, Hammerite and acrylic over the years. All will be fine for both.
-
I run a Magnaflow 3" high flow jobbie.
-

Why? It would drive like a dog off boost!
-
if you think you can get a good condition milage vr same as yours for 2k or less these days! and you could pro get near a grand in parts off your if you stripped it...
Too true Mike!
-
You can go R32 for less then 2K easily! Its only an engine, exhaust manifold, throttle and wiring/management.
-
Any pics of the above mount?
-
Why not go 24v?
-
Yeah I saw the slot and figured thats what it was for.
What are you sell them for and when?
