Fear is the engine of
community....

Travelling………………… around the world…or in a closer country, in a different
state or province, seeing how other people think and live…is the way to
go, a way of learning, understanding, opening your mind and spirit…
understanding and accepting the difference of others human being. This is
what life is all about. Learn, search, understand stuff…. Nothing else
matter, don’t judge, comment or analyse nothing before you see it, live it
yourself.
Open your mind, life is to short.................... |

This is a prices list and
explanations page IN ENGLISH
(translated
by
Joel B. Cort
from the vanagon mailling list)
on the complete or
partial VW engine reconstructions orsealing of a motor that leaks, or
all considerable works needed on the wasser motor. ATTENTION!!! For
those that think that they only need a "Heads Gasket job" on those
leaky heads, read attentively the first section on the VW motors.
Sometimes, it is simple, and sometimes (rather often) it is NOT...
This page also offers a good explanation on engines conversions,
including the Vanaru/Subaru and Ford ZETEC. To see the completes
conversion of our vehicle,
click here. (click on the picture for more of info) |
