[Vwdiesel] swapping out 1500 diesel with 1600 diesel

[Chuck Carnohan]

Sounds like a fun project!  Does Kennedy make an adapter to tie into the
heater as well with that kit?  It would be fun to have a functional
heater in a Splitty or any aircooled for that matter!  Keep us posted
please!

Thanks Chuck!  What I'm wanting to do is take a 1600 VW diesel and put
it in my '65 VW single cab.  Kennedy makes an adapter to put a rabbit
diesel into a splitty but when I asked them for what size VW diesel,
they couldn't tell me anything more than "rabbit diesel".  Since they
are interchangeable from the info you provided, sounds like it'll be a
no brainer with the adapter from Kennedy!  Thanks again!!!

Bryant,

Yes. Specifically and generally a perfect match.  VW is usually good
about interchangeability (try this word Hagar!)

Hi all,
     Does anyone know if the 1500 diesel can be swapped out with a 1600
diesel, like for instance in an early rabbit?  Specifically, I need to
know
if the 1600 will bolt up to the bellhousing the same way the 1500 does.
TIA

Bryant
