Morning all, I know there's a million threads and posts out there for athe 02j/o2a and hydro clutch conversion into a MK2, but I found this link today in my daily internet rummagings which mentions a reinforcement plate I haven't seen before?? http://myweb.whitman.syr.edu/srotblat/swap/trans.htm The plate looks like this: I'm assuming this still requires beating the firewall flat, unless this plate needs to be cut and welded in? Cheers, Tim.
Ahh, interesting. I did some more digging this morning and most of the info does seem to be on American sites, looks like this Corrado part also has 4 bolt holes for the brake servo rather than the 3 on the MK2 servo? I haven't taken mine apart yet to check the fitment though. So beating the bulkhead flat should be strong enough to directly mount the clutch master to the firewall? I know this is a common solution, but is it the best...
mk2 has 4 holes as well the part above is fitted to mk2 and corrado LHD with hydro clutch, RHD corrado/passat with hydro clutch do not need the part its just all bolted direct to the bulkhead
