JBugs - 1971 VW Super Beetle - Engine Build Series - Crank & Rod Assembly

Описание: View our complete selection of air-cooled VW parts on the JBugs website: http://www.jbugs.com/

Our 1971 Super Beetles engine case is back from the machine shop and ready to be built. We’re going to do a mild performance build and start with a 74mm counterweighted crankshaft at the heart of our engine. To ensure the crank and rotating assembly doesn’t contact the case we assemble the crank and rods and test the fit and clearance in the engine case. Follow along with our tech as he starts our 1800cc engine build.
