- 1996 Passat wagon tdi, 1991 Corrado TDI (sold)1983 Vanagon 7pass.GL 1.6td 1982 Westy;THE PHOENIX 1.6na(NOW JX/5speed) my partner's 2014 Jetta Sportwagon 6spd manual AND MY NEW TOY/PROJECT... Sunny, a bright yellow 87 syncro Westy with 1Z TDI motor
hi gang,
I hope everyone's summer has gome well... I've been roadtripping a LOT in SUNNY, my 1Z powered 87 Syncro Westy,through Alaska, Yukon, and BC. as well as WA and OR,
And just drove the PHOENIX back from Maine and the Busses by the Buoy camp out. I guess I'm driving my way out of the pandemic?
so I have a line on a "crate" new motor, and the owner of it doesnt know if it's a 1Z or AHU. is there any special casting numbers, or other ways to tell from a long block? Theres no obvious letter code on the block.
this may be the basis for a new motor for the PHOENIX!
thanks in advance,
Steve
