Rather than tag onto the last thread, I thought I would start another.
In peoples experience on here, we, as in my mate and I, are after advice on cam options and gearbox options to compliment the engine.
We are going to build a 2.0 16v, whether its a KR, 6a or 9a, we are undecided. We need to do more homework. But we are going to retain the original head as fitted to the KR and gas flow it. Now the throttle body has already been airflowed and knife edged. The induction manifold has been gas flowed and smoothed a little. He is running an after market air filter assembly and has a tubular manifold connected to a Jetex exhaust. The exhaust valves are and will be remaining standard.
What realistic can shafts would be the best to fit to this set up? We still want day to day driveability and also pass the MOT obviously, but the car will also be being used for track day purposes as well as fairly long distance driving from time to time.
Also, at the moment he is running a MKIII gearbox. Which one I have no idea. What gearbox options would anybody suggest?
Car BTW is a 1988 Jetta GTX.
