Few days from now its Christmas time, another year, another page in our life. then few days from christmas is New Year. Everything that happens in us is so fast, that if we do not embrace it and enjoy it. you would never know how wonderful life is. let it be wonderful while supply last. I hope and pray for the goodness of all man kind. Peace on Earth!

Pinagawan ko na lang ng paraan yung engine bay instead of spending some more . the beetle should have been out and running last week. but the transmission is not working alright, we need to replace it. got the new tranny yesterday, and hopefully within this week my beetle will be out.

i still need to do some paint retouches as soon as my beetle is out. hope everything would be alright.

The Electrical wiring system is done.


This is the picture before the re-wiring was done







The new Electrical wiring system of my beetle.

Updates: on my Project Engine, unfortunately another costing adds up on my expenses, "The Electrical Wiring" I recently realized as soon the new electrician informed me, that my electrical system doesnt have any relays to control the flow of electricity. what a waste men. the electrical was done before by a very known DMG dude. I really dont know what is he's idea before on doing my wirings. and now i need to redo my wiring system. imagine the new found electrical will be using 9 relays to suffice the proper wirings.

Engine block would be out of the machine shop by tomorrow (VW Precision) my brother will be the one to get it. Most likely over the weekend, will start doing the engine.

the usual work work and work....

Last Monday, kuya went to VW Precision (Machine Shop) to bring the Engine block, Machining was done for fittings and so. most likely by next week, Will start building the engine.

Fresh Right out of the box


At Long last after weeks of looking finally it ended. I bought an Engine Block worth a whopping 30thou. its Made in Brazil, AS-41, with Big Galleys, Original Dual Relief. Small Stud. Standard Housing. Now preparation is almost done, here are some pictures

The story behind the Engine block which my brother check out in Marikina was not approve by my mechanic, main bearing was moving and it should not. so after few days got a call from Janet (EGT) and she have an AS-21 Crank case. so the usual eric bring it to Jon for checkup, and so they check the block unfortunately the block was stuckup, it was boiled under brake fluid and WD40 and yet it's still stuckup. :( as per jon's advise "Hanap ulit" hayyy kya eto hanap ulit. i was still thinking on buying a new block which would cost me a lot. parang impractical kase eh, pwede naman gumamit ng surplus na crank case, kaso nga lang talagang tiyagaan lang maghanap talaga. I wish i could stumble on one soon...

another pix. recent updates where very alarming, i discovered that my Engine block have a crack on the lips insert for the distributor. nasty, and it crippled another budget instead that it would go for a different equipment be needed for the engine. My brother is currently in Marikina right now looking for an Engine Block for my Project, i just hope that his searching will turn-out alright.

Last week i was able to buy my distributor @ 3thou. which includes 009 distributor and Compufire. panalo na daw yung presyo so i took it.


This project would be taking some more time. Im not in a hurry. I dont wanna rush things, not like before that i usually want it to happen right away, but its not right. now i wanna make it right. Patience is a virtue in all walks of life. and its importancy on certain project is very important.

my priceless possessions: parts for my VW 1600 Engine w/c im currently Rebuilding. Those Cylinder heads, where just released from the Machine Shop (VW Precision)last saturday, Aug 5,2006 . Jon help me out on putting these heads on shape. Thanks dude!
