I like my hyrid too. Are you doing any backpressure tests?

Gauge and the computer use different coolant sensors, so if you don't have a scanner, replace the coolant sensor on the crossover.

I would say no unless the front diff has been dropped down. Some kits do that, some don't.

Are you talking about the CKO vs the real one or ?

Thanks, good to know.

I would try it as is. I was thinking of machining out a 12cm housing too but was told it wouldn't make too much difference, IIRC. Are you sure its a 60mm? I didn't think they came 8 blade 60mm?

That's why I bought one, my new GEP engine build has to last another 10 years at least and another 250K. Just thought I'd post this in case anyone wanted to buy the remaining few and figured it wouldn't fit DB2's with modifying or buying new parts.

I called DSG the other way, talked a man who knew all about them and told me why they stopped making them. As most of us know, Pete Jackson made the first batch's, then after he went under, DSG found another company to make them, then one day, the owner said F*ck it, I am retiring and that was...

No one is hesitant, but if you want to fix it, go for it. As I said and others, we hear this time and time again but people either start and run or spend money and energy and build a worse mousetrap. Like I said, if you do it and fix it, you'll make a killing and you'd be a hero. :cool: I...

What about just redoing the timing setup and have a new cam made, I think that would be easier in the long run.

You'd be the 1000th person to say they could redo the PMD but no one ever does. If you can, you'll make a killing.

Ford aka International's setup is simplicity at its best, one crank gear mesh's with a cam gear, that's it and why the cam turns backwards. We have a timing chain as you know and to run a gear set, we need one with an idler. If billets were affordable, I'd have a cam made for our engines and do...

VW's have either good maintenance or none, but if they say don't service an auto, do the exact opposite. If its been serviced, no need to flush it. I have a 2000 Jetta TDI, bought it with 350,000 Km's on it, flared 2-3, dropped out of OD, would delay into D or R, its the dreaded 01M trans. I...

I thought you were going to fix your pump? Either way, that was shipped fast, damn. Edit-nevermind, went back and reread.
