What about the u-flow motors only. Any difference between the 1600 and the 2.0 litres?

My brain.... Inlet specifically, although now that you ask, exhaust too?
Hey Guys,
Does anyone know whether a manifold off an ADY or similar 2.0l motor will bolt up to a 1588cc Mk1 cylinder head?
Cheers,
Gregdub
Anything out there?
Hi Guys,
I've been doing some research into possible engine swaps for my 1977 B1 Coupe, and need advice. There's lots of historical and even current chatter online regarding ABA X-flow motors, but...
Agree re dyno, although that won't happen. I should point out, the polished are 34mm for a 40DCOE, so about as big as you can go. The radius on the original is actually quite "notchy". Italian...
I've come late to this discussion, so hopefully the brains trust are still out there!?
I've done some poking around, and while the ABA motors sound like the bees-knees, I don't believe they were...
Which is a shame, but not the end of the world... Do you have a photo of it? Would you be willing to part with it?
From the online chat forums, I understand that this ancient motor might be about the perfect thing to shoehorn into a B! Passat engine bay. The thing is, they're ancient, and apparently a lot more...
Kind of a hens tooth, but before I go and purchase aftermarket, does anyone have a spare TS steering wheel they're willing to part with?
As an addendum, I bought some new chokeson the ebay from "carb deals". They're aftermarket, cheaper than the original items, and polished! Quality appears to be much nicer than the genuine...

For anyone in Passat DCOE land...
The answer for the Lynx M150 (as a starting point) seems to be:
But as a starting point with 40DCOE
34mm chokes
160 mains
F16 emulsion tubes
180 -200 air...

Bang on regarding the 1-4 intake lengths Marty! I'd hunt down a double manifold, except I've got my heart set on straight LPG with a BLOS propane carb and SLK blower setup as the final aim. The...
Cheers Water Chap!
Interesting... What colour is your interior? I've got a pair of standard (coupe - folding) front seats in grey that I have no use for. Do you have photos of the TS seat you could post?
Hi All,
I'm considering a 5 speed conversion to my 77 Passat.
I understand that a Mk2 gearbox transaxle will go in without great difficulty, but that getting hold of one is tricky... hens teeth....
Hi All,
I'm hoping someone has information on the best DCOE and jetting to use with an M150 manifold?
I'm running a 1600 Mk1 motor, mild cam, extractors and a 2 1/4 inch exhaust.

Hi Myuzername - apologies for the late reply - I've been offline for a bit. Yep - still looking. Is the seat still available? A pair (of course) would be better, but I'd definitely settle for one....
Hi,
I'm interested in the steering wheel if you're wrecking?
Thanks,
Greg.
Hi Guys,
I'm trying to track down some hens teeth - a pair of B1 TS front seats.
The plan is to reupholster them, so I don't care if they're rough.
Anyone with seats for sale?
Thanks!
Hi Lanky,
I'm 6'3" (190cm) tall. The standard (GLS) seats in the 1977 look much better than the earlier models (I've had a few 1974/1975 LS's years ago), but sit the same height. The TS I owned...
