Inline 5cyl Petrol engine tech / Re: timing belt tensioner-93 eurovan

That first link is actually the same as buying from Van-again. I didn't know Ken sourced those from Germany. He has a lot of good parts for 2.5L vans.

CaveVan Stuff / Re: Lift Kit effect on other components

« on: February 21, 2018, 08:52:44 am »

Cole installed a lift, new Bilsteins, and 16" wheels on my van a few years ago now. Afterwards, I had an alignment done and the shop set my van at a bit nose down as well.

Do their passenger swivels have the attachment to install the extra rear facing seat? I am looking for a base that is already lowered but still has that attachment pin.

The battery size doesn't change because of the swivel. You cannot put heated seats through the Eurocamper swivels. However, you can run heated seats through the swivels that Bus Depot carries. I hope this helps.

Cole has at least 2 or 3 of this type of build documented on the Samba. Here's one of them:

Nice job on the SketchUp models. I look forward to seeing them become the real thing.

I would definitely want one of these. I have been looking at the European ones for awhile now. Since I have a '93, I am wondering if you will make a narrower version as well? So that the two small doors on each side of the van can stay in place?

Inline 5cyl Petrol engine tech / Re: Pistons for a '95 ACU engine rebuild

« on: November 29, 2016, 04:12:30 pm »

If you want to increase bore and stroke, Overland Parts sells the pistons you need (also expensive at $1308 for the set). Go to page 30 of their online catalog and you will see:
EFP 107 2705 4VT 9.1, PISTON SET, INCLUDES PINS, CLIPS AND RINGS, JE, 5 CYL, 83.0MM BORE, 100MM STROKE. 9.0:1 C/R.

I am seeing the stock ones on sale for $216 each:

When I spoke to them over 6 months ago, they said they were doing some Eurovan work as well.
