1.6l VW diesel parts needed

[bvanetten]

A friend of mine is gathering parts for a diesel conversion in his Suzuki samurai. He has a motor out of an 80's quantum (longitude oriented motor), and the transmission/clutch adapter kit. What he still needs is an oil pan and an exhaust manifold out of a horizontally mounted car like a jetta. Without these parts their are clearance/fit issues. Does anyone know of a salvage yard that might have these parts?

You could try "The Parts Place" in Auburn Hills, Mi.

248-373-2300 They carry a lot of new and used parts for VWs. When I had an 81 diesel I bought a lot of stuff there.

Good luck.

Try this link to Rocky Road Outfitters:http://www.rocky-road.com/zukengine.html



They do a lot of these conversions and they might be able to help.

I would give them to you as I have several but I live in Texas and Freight might be more than you could buy some where close to you. I would like to have a 1. 6 vw diesel generator or a DC welder. good luck jim

The Jetta ex manifold will exit the exhaust right into the starter. Seems I found one off a gas engine from a quantum that worked. I just upgraded to TD in my Samurai so if you can't find something that works, let me know.
