[Alberg30] VW Diesel Engine

[Mike Lehman]

No offense, but your not serious about a VW engine in the A30 are you? It's 
way too much power and too heavy.

Fellow Albergers

I would like to know if any one of you out there has any information  about 
a company in the US that  makes and sells the Volkswagen Diesel Engine 
package for boats. I heard that this company  supplies the whole marine 
Package with  the proper Marine Cooling system and Transmission. No radiator 
involved.
  The VW engine is very reliable.Runs for years and years without any 
problems and has more HP than the existing engines now available. It is also 
small and fits into our kind of a boat  A-30.  I run a Volvo Penta MD7A and 
I am playing with the idea of a new VW installation.
A friend of mine bought a VW write off wreck from an insurance company (back 
end smashed right up to the dashboard) and installed the engine in his 32' 
aluminum Robersts that he built himself.....he also made the cooling 
conversion from car to marine. My friend passed away and the boat is 
somewhere in Argentina.
