Since there doesn't seem to be much traffic I thought I would post an
update on my TDI into Caddy conversion. The engine is in and the
cable shifter has been connected to the 02A transmission and adjusted
properly so that all gears engage smoothly. Both half shafts are
connected to the trans and the wheel hubs. I am currently
fabricating a downpipe and then I can finish the exhaust. I am
contemplating removing the stock fan and fan shroud and replace it
with a large flat pusher fan on the front. This will give me more
room to mount the intercooler. Check out my pictures on the Caddy
transplant page of my webpage listed below. More as the job
progresses. Hayden

"Dictatorships all have common factors: a government controlled by
one party, a leader who claims to have special powers outside the law
to keep the country "safe", secret prisons where people are locked up
without charges or trial and government opponents are branded as
unpatriotic and charged with aiding the enemy."
