Vanagon/T3 Engine Conversion Systems

After many years of supplying conversion systems for the T3 and listening to customer complaints about cabin noise, broken welds etc we have come to the current design as the only way to mount the engine.
Due to the resonance and harmonic characteristics of this lunch box, we have found it imperative to isolate the engine by using hydraulic engine mounts. This necessitates the use of a 15 degree or upright design rather than the solid rubber mounts of the 33 degree lay down design used on the original 1.6 D transporter.
This design necessitates the use of a raised engine deck to clear the engine on all two wheel drive models. The new deck is easy to install and accepts the engine cover. It is covered in a light weight grey carpet material.

This system with stock gearing will still do 75mph.	$5,950.00
