1600 motor, fresh rebuild
Posted: Mon Jan 14, 2013 10:01 am
Fresh build 1600 twin port, fits either beetle, bus to 1973 or KG.
No short cuts on this one, what needed replacing was changed.
Case line bored, 1mm OS & refaced
Cam drive gear machined to spec
New Mahle main bearings
Re-faced cam folowers
7.9 to 1 CR
Crank machined 0.5mm US
New AE big end bearings
Rods rebuilt with new AE small ends
KS pistons OS 0.5mm with AE rings, machined sleeves to suit
New Mahle cam bearings
Flywheel re-faced
Elring main seal
Heads rebuilt, new guides & exhaust valves, fly-cut, no cracks or damaged threads or inserts
Flushed & pressure tested oil cooler
New 26mm oil pump, (From Alert engine parts, can't remember make) 3 Bar oil pressure at idle
New pump cover with bay bus cross member hanger
New gaskets all round
Fresh 20w50 Shell Helix oil & 4 NGK plugs
I built this motor for myself as a spare for my rides 4 months ago, but over December holidays had nothing to do and built a 1776, so this one is now taking up space.
It has been run on the bench for about 1,5 hours, not been in a ride since rebuild, no oil leaks, no issues.
I can sell it as a sub with oil cooler R9500 or as a complete, (less exhaust), with either a alternator or genny with stock dizzy, carb & clutch (everything to make it run included) R12000.
Carb & dizzy have been re-worked and are 100% working condition, fresh paint / powder coating.
It is complete at the moment and you can come & see it run.
Runs super smooth, no knocking squeeling or tapping
Engineering costs alone on this one cost me almost R3000, do the sums, this is a good deal, cant do a simillar rebuild for the price.
Sold with a 3 month warrantee on sub.
