Watch when you buy pug wheels! I got some pug wheels with real nice michalin tires, BUT didnt do enough research so i got 190/65/390 wich they no longer make. Good thing i only paid 100$ for all 4 wheels and tires because when the tires go bad the wheels r junk because im not going to pay 285$ a tire!!! so becareful there. Anyone know where i can get longer wheel studs and better lugs?

What clutch setup did you use? -
Will the alt from my 86 gl EA82 bolt up to the mount on the 82 EA81? Both engines have A/C but EA81 is missing A/C and alt. 86 EA82 has air and dont work so i would like to get rid of the dead weight. Is there any way to bolt alt right to mount on EA81 without A/C? Thank you!

I am a wiz at wiring (once took diesal vw engine out of rabbit and put in gas engine from dasher fuel injected.lots of wiring there) this carter weber has been rebuilt with the engine so i might stick with it. The whole thing is free so i cant lose there! I know im loseing power but im looking for gas mileage.Plan on rebuild 0f EA82 when i swap engines.

what im asking is, are they good carbs? does anyone have info or links to share? Im about to put a 1982 EA81 that has been rebuilt 50.000 miles ago out of a friends reck. Im putting it in place of my abused but still running EA82 1986 4x4 gl wagon thats about to take a dump.I wanted to know if i would be better off with the intake and carb from 1986 EA82?

I know this has been covered a million times BUT! I have a 1986 4x4 5 speed D/R with a EA 82 thats about to die. I can get a 1982 1.8 EA81 rebuilt out of a friends reck! Can someone please explain what clutch changes i have to do for this swap? Will the EA82 fly wheel bolt on to the EA81? Will the bellhousing change from engine to engine? Thankyou Dave
