    Beetles cases dont have the mounts for the rear engine bar
    This adapter bolts to the beetle case and then bolts to a bus rear engine bar

    He means if the case hasn't been drilled and tapped for the 3 bolts that bolt on the rear engine bar. The adaptor replaces the oil pump cover instead.

    EDIT: beat me to it!

    No mate I don't think It's right that I make that sort of decision for them, they say. it's either the 1600 or a scooby. their choice in the end. I will just do as told. Thanks though. :thumbsup:

    No I don't think so. I have read that jk kits are expensive and come complete with calipers etc. but I think you can do an home brew job yourself. Just can't remember the details!
