ya, good point, but i did make sure it is in the right placement! all is good. ive had the dash in and out of the car like 8 times just making sure everything will work!
also if you nitice in the pics, im putting in a double din stereo. proably gonna go with something touch screen. i know its not a race inspired mod, but i figure i want to do some long drives with this car, so i thought why not have something nice to have navi, mp3, and dvd all in one unit! |

Ah, but this is the german-style corner and true german-style cars are great long distance drivers. Think 'Autobahn'

update time again. sorry for the super slow process, but i AM gettin this car done.
well todays update is on the motor. i was searching around on shoptalkforums and saw a fellow guy selling a center mount fan shroud, so i posted on his thread saying i would love to buy it. well that guy said he wasnt ready to sell it just yet. well two hrs later i get a I.M. from a guy over seas saying he makes these fan shrouds and if i would like one, he would ship one out my way. the price i could not turn down..... $156 shipped (yes not joking) so i paypaled him the money. keep in mind the fan shroud shipped ground from Estonia. so 4 weeks later, i had this fan shroud. boy was i like a kid on xmass morning when i saw that on my door step. when i got it, i knew this style fan shrould was prone to having the #3 cyl run hot, so solved this problem by disceting a stock fan shroud for the needed air deflects. when i mocked it up, i realised the hole where the alternator mounts to the fan housing was too big, so i cut out the stock metal one, riveted it to the new fan housing, and i still have yet to glass it all in. but i feel im off in the right direction. well on with the pics. mock up pics... ![]() ![]() ![]() and the mods to the fan shroud, here you can see the air deflects and the alternator pice from the orginal metal shroud... ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

The case you have is a PITA for upright conversion, but it can be done. It has CV stamped on it right?
