    Engine removal Q.

    Possible to tip the engine and trans up and out without dropping the subframe? Core support and cooling pack is removed. Doing this in my field of dreams so limited equipment on hand.

    VE Nictane .275 on brand new bodies set up by DBW $650 shipped and Volvo gt2056vl $250 shipped.

    Why so hard to ad pics to threads?

    Ok, it's easy when starting your own thread just choose a properly sized pic from your phone or computer but when you want to add a pic to a reply on a different thread it seems overly complicated. Why not the simplicity of just choosing from your devices gallery?.

    K03 hybrid ID?

    EDIT; Talked to Jerry at G-pop and he confirmed this is indeed a hybrid turbo. Bought the engine with turbo. Currently at the pyp and found a 97 Passat that appears to be slightly modded, so I decided to check the turbo. Is this a hybrid? "HY"?

    Bulkhead connector recommendations

    Reached the wiring phase of my mustang project and need to pass the loom through the firewall. I could go with a split grommet and pass the entire engine harness through the wall but I feel a bulkhead connector would be cleaner and easier to service/add wires to. Any recommendations on sealed...

    Power steering loss.

    Bought an 01' parts car today. Been sitting six years. Got it home, bypassed R175 (something up with neutral/park interlock), primed the pump and injectors and it fired right up. Short test drive around the field revealed no power steering. None. Belt is intact, reservoir is full, no obvious...

    BEW to ALH Swap

    This might be better posted in the mk4 section so please forgive. Finished up an ALH swap on my "old" 05' golf about a month ago. Donor engine was from runonbeer's old golf with vnt17 and pp764's. (Thanks Rob!) Everything is plug n play but you're much better off having a donor car. No pics of...
