Back in Columbia Falls after a year in Texas, feels very good to be back.

The '77 didn't make it back to MT, it found a new home back east.

I'm in the market for another MK1 now that I'm back.

They always seem to be around when you're not looking, but when you want to buy one nothing.

I'm going to stay German again I think, round eye Rabbit or a MK1 Scirocco.

Enough about me though, this is about your annual engine bay upgrade.

really going to push for completion for the GTG, but funds will be a factor, visually the car will probably look complete, but most likely wont be running for the weekend of the gathering

Sorry no major updates yet, clutch is in, trans is bolted up, package is in the bay, finished fabricating the mk1 02A mounts this last weekend, now its getting pulled back out, so the bay can be primed and sanded (yes, again, fml) then it can be painted. also figured out a really good hydraulic master cylinder setup for any mk1 chassis, will try to shoot a few pics and give a pic update this weekend, as well as on matts rabbit as well. soon!

okay, here a few pics of the engine in the car for motor mock up, and mount fabrication

Then a couple of the mk1 hydro clutch setup

there isnt a good way to mount one on the firewall, as the pedals are so close together,
and the booster is in the way for any decent alignment. this way it will have oem feel great alignment and keeps the bay shaved and smoove

and it fits with all stock guages etc. its close, but it fits!

Got the paint and might be sprayed this weekend!
