Is there any functional benefit from using the plastic thermostat housing found in later model engines?
My experience is the plastic is more flexible and prone to cracks and leaks after prolonged use. VW used cast aluminum in their earlier model engines which I find more durable. Any reason why I should not convert my water pump to an earlier aluminum thermostat housing? _____________ List Sponsor: http://www.netsville.com To remove yourself from this list, send mail to [email protected] with 'unsubscribe a2_16v' in the body of your message See us on the web at http://www.a2-16v.com Visit the 16V Homepage at http://www.gti16v.org
