    Default Wanted: VW Drake/bre parts

    Hello-

    I am looking for a few BRE/drake parts (vw water cooled). I am looking for specifically a Drake dry sump or parts, as well as a drake valve cover (or comparable- brabham, etc). I am also looking for bre (bertils) sprocket for mech injection- for the setup that mounts on the rear of the engine, and the sprocket goes on the rear of the cam. If you have one and dont want to part with it, will also pay to borrow so i can copy it...or even a pic of it would help immensely! Also interested in other bertils/Drake w/c parts for spares. Thanks-

    You want an original VW 1600cc SuperVee block? You pick up for free! Or maybe $50.00 for my trouble to put it on a pallet. Before it goes to the recycle transfer station here in town.

    Default FSV parts

    Erik,

    I am going through all of the "spares" I received with my car. I may have what you want or something very close. I hope to have some answers by next week.

    Rob,

    I really should come over and pick up that block, but you know what a drive it is to Scotland...
    ... from Ashford ...

    Let me try to setup time next week.

    Thanks for the offer Rob, i would love to swing by and pick that block up, but wrong coast! I already have a couple extra since i never throw anything away, so am afraid shipping would make it too much. Thanks anyway though. Chris, I wrote you a email about parts...let me know what you find and want to part with. Thanks again everybody-
