4K or Not 4K



sorry, i just started to catch this thread. who's looking for a passat 2l 
16v? we are doing a vr6 conversion on my buddies '91 passat, and he's 
looking to get rid of his 2l 16v. only wants like $300-$400, which is below 
yard prices. it has about 40k on a rebuild too, so it's a good strong motor. 
if one of you is interested lmk, and i'll get you in touch with him.
