Cush, That's a beefy rail, that ecotec aught to move it along nicely. I am loving mine so far.... |

Looking good Cush, I had mine out over Memorial Day Weekend, two days and it sipped a third of a tank of gas, better than my 1600. The torque and power are out of this world... |

Its hard to tell from the pictures. Did you solid mount the radiator to the frame? If so you may want to consider adding a rubber bushing. Heating causes expansion and add some vibration in the mix and you may be prone to cracking. Is it possible it will last...yes, but save yourself some aggravation and give it some room to move. |

Its hard to see but there are rubber bushings on the bottom that it sits on and I had washers in top in pic but they were there just while I was welding there getting replaced with bushings also. Thanks Sent from my QMV7A using Tapatalk |

Looks great!!! From experience put something strong under the oilpan. I have ran vws for over 30 years in the woods and never busted a block. I busted the oilpan on my eco the 4th day out. They are thin! Sent from my SCH-I545L using Tapatalk |

Thanks, I bet that was fun did you have to pull the motor to change pan because of how the adapter bolts to pan??? I just cut out a piece of 3\8" aluminum for the skid under the motor. Sent from my QMV7A using Tapatalk |
