The orange air hose is connected to the microcompressor...i tap from there instead of pcv hose itself because i don't want to cut the original black hose mar B)

U can get the t-joint in any hardware shop...but those t-joint mouth is bigger, so the hose come with vacuum meter cannot fit in... :)

But don't worry..all u need is come with the meter..in the box B)

Hi guys, I am very new to this..just wanted to get some advice on fitting a v6 engine to an old beetle..this would be my first car modification project...so if anyof you guys can give me some good sites that explain how to go about doing this...and if the engine will fit without having to make more space.

Thanks
