Project: RECESSION...16V to 8V...cause we broke :(

Werd. Some of you might remember Gregus' old MK2 from a few years ago. Kirk has plans of low-n-slow. Reliability and economics in the 8V. Anybody want a 16V motor?? It's for sale.....






Kirk was sooo excited to get this swap done....he was doing flips










He even tried to help Keane get the donor car ready to drop the 8V....








props are in order to J Langille for the use of vital equipment needed to make this possible













good thing Keane knew what he was doing......














....because Carter was just being....well, Carter.... somehow the word "useless" comes to mind hahahahahahhahahaa
























the crew.....








the sketch.........lol









even Chris helped out....he held the light source!!!














in the end Keane had to step it up as it was getting late...









that's it for now, until the 8V gets dropped into the Jetta. Er, wait a minute.....the 16V has to get dropped out of the Jetta first before the 8V goes in

sketchy fuckin carter eh puck haha

Ed.... if Carmen is true to his word and can get you a running 16V for a $100....why would you want one that doesn't run for half the price???

that he prolly wont sell for half the rpice cause he'd be able to get more for the intake manifold.

Looking for a 8v or 16 v .....someone got one ??
