Beetle vs Bus engine differences

[georgeyv]

Afternoon all...

Writing this as I sit infront of the engine I just bought for my bus - recon 1600tp destined for a beetle.

I've swapped the over gearbox tinware as I know that's different - what else do I need to swap?

Heat exchangers
exhaust
Inlet manifold (beetle version doesn't have a vac takeoff for brake servo)
dynamo? I've got a 30A and it seems to have a large spade and a small spade connector where my old one had posts to put ring terminals on... Also have an alternator spare if it's worth switching over?

Cheers.
George

Has the case got the correct bolt holes for the moustache bar?

Yeah it's the universal case with bolt holes - need to put the moustache bar on though.
