PostForum: General Discussions   Posted: Tue May 30, 2023 4:31 am   Subject: Front Suspension Question
The inner metal bushing should be clamped tight. There might be exceptions, but every rubber bushing like that I've seen holds the inner bushing tight and the rubber absorbs the twist. Along with that ...

Jacob, I've got my 931 up on jackstands, just finished refreshing the rear axle (new wheel cylinders, bearings flushed and repacked, CV joints flushed and re-greased with new boots, plus some other bi ...

I believe they're the same as several late-70s VWs and available from aftermarket suppliers. Motorad or Stant part 46132 are what I'm coming up with. It looks like in the US at least, the cap changed ...

I've gotta say, I've learned a lot following you through this process. There's definitely not a pile of CFM on the table with these heads like there is with old American iron, but I'd think with all t ...

Well, I found an answer to the hub packing question, turns out Haynes does give an amount: 80g. I'd started with 50, so I added another 20g or so. I think if I do it again, I'll measure out 80g, draw ...

Well, I'm finally making progress again. I had some other things get in the way, figuratively - I'm working on building a shop, had to pull the transmission on my truck, and going snowmobiling when I ...

This is a really elegant way to implement EFI - great idea, and I hope it works out to a great product! One suggestion, if I may: did you consider modifying the existing fuel distributor rather than b ...

PostForum: Performance Upgrades   Posted: Sun Apr 30, 2023 4:19 am   Subject: CPS CAM or Camshaft Position Sensor - where and how to fit
I'd also have to agree that the difference between sequential and batch or continuous injection probably isn't going to improve on/off throttle transients. Sequential injection helps with atomization, ...

Don't feel bad about the oil pressure, I didn't think of it initially either. I cranked mine over several times before I got the oiling issue sorted (I did pour oil over the cam, but obviously that do ...

I don't know why, but I've found myself very interested in the question of what would be the best way to refresh and upgrade the bottom end of the to-for. I actually independently stumbled across the ...

PostForum: Performance Upgrades   Posted: Fri Apr 28, 2023 3:30 pm   Subject: CPS CAM or Camshaft Position Sensor - where and how to fit
I've always thought that on a vehicle with a distributor, being converted to EFI or coil pack ignition, it'd make the most sense to gut the distributor and adapt a CPS (or camshaft synchronizer, assum ...

The place to start with the fuel pump is to see if it's drawing current. Ideally, you want fuel in it, so it's probably best to do it with it in place. I'd disconnect the wires an apply 12V to the ter ...

I'm on a number of forums, and I see this now and then where people lose their minds because someone responds and offers good information that's not exactly what they're looking for. I don't know what ...

If the refrigerant circuit is still sealed (even if the refrigerant has all leaked out), I'd think you can save it. I'd flush it out and replace any seals - it could just leak out in no time or even s ...

Hmmm, it seems I, and some previous posters in this thread, have it wrong. I was under the impression that the NA piston was closer to a flat top and the NA head was more conventional (open combustion ...
