Have you checked the VW dealer? The cost will prob. be one arm and a leg.

I am doing the same conversion myself.

But try Demello (DMS) for the cranks. They do these all the time.

good luck

In the UK a brand new VW wbx 2.1 crank was about 300 pounds..
Aircooled net do counterweighted wbx cranks and stojers too... IIRC

Pay him and let him send it to you as a gift

That is how we do it sometimes here to get stuff from the states without paying impor- dut- to skip the import taxes

Yep Strokers no problem,

So let me get this straight. All that has to be changed is the thrust bearing? so I guess you would use water boxer shims to set the end play?

Hello
You need to modify the type 1 case to fit the three piece WBX bearing
then use WBX/ type 2 shims
