Cant wait for the motor to fitted but patience is key if you want things just right, but seriously inspiring so many people to do the 2l 8v swap including myself been wanting to do it for so long, so its awesome that your content is so informative, come on guys like subscribe the dude deserves it😅😅😅
I used the alternator from the 2.0 motor with the 6 rib belt, used a vr6 water pump pulley (not grooved) using a 6pk 1033 belt and its never let me down
Hi there I have exactly the same car it’s been standing for 5 years now 😭 reason it’s because of the mechanics that were handling the car I have lost hope cause they knew I don’t know anything about cars which they wouldn’t lie to me this videos are giving me the power to seek for help regarding my car 🚘
Hi bud, I’ve made a video braking down the costs for basically all that I’ve done so far. That should give you a guideline or estimate of more or less what you could budget for ua-cam.com/video/N1WI3SQ3CZQ/v-deo.html
The motor is looking good Jamie 👌 can't wait to see the once the motor is in and starting 💪 will you be fitting a lower strut brace on the golf? Heard alot of guys recommend it when fitting a bigger motor in the golfies just my food for thought but keep up the awesome videos 🙌
I’m enjoying the build series so far in spite of the “budget build” departure. If I may ask, what prompted you to venture down the rabbit hole of building an 8v as opposed to sourcing a 16v, VR6 or 1.8T ? I imagine the costs associated are fairly similar.
Thanks bud. Initially I wasn’t planning on doing all the modifications that I have done. Being a “budget build” at the time, it was a much cheaper option as opposed to those other options. I would have loved a vr6 or 16v. also wanted a NA build that’s why I didn’t opt for a 1.8t
Bro love your channel but my advice, new age youtube vlogging significantly in the car community, show more of the car work than yourself, rather narrate the whole video then show yourself.

High Jamie I would like to go the route as you did, how much would cost to buy the engine and do almost everything you did

このレベルのレストアエンジンなら欲しく無いな…
面は塗っても補機類とかは治して無さそうだしウォータージャケット錆だらけ、合わせ面は研磨した痕跡が無い。
このエンジン本当に長持ちするの？

this famous VW 2.slow 8v engine is famous for its reliability but notorious for engine oil burining from day 1...nobody know the real reason
