Kennedy Engineered Products Engine to VW Trans-Axle Adapter

The Kennedy Engineered Products KEP-ADP-SUB-200 is an adapter kit that allows Subaru engines to be mated with VW pattern manual trans-axles. This conversion is designed for Subaru's EJ20, EJ22, EJ25, EG33, EZ30, and EZ36 engine families, enabling them to bolt up to a VW 4-bolt pattern trans-axle. The system is engineered to accommodate a VW 200 mm clutch size. This comprehensive adapter kit includes all necessary components for the conversion. It contains the main adapter plate, a new flywheel, a pilot bearing, and all the required hardware to securely fasten the bare engine block to the bare trans-axle. The kit's specifications include a weight of 29 pounds and dimensions of 14 x 12 x 3 inches. Installation considerations include potential interference with early VW trans mounts. The stock rubber transmission mounts found on early VW Beetle and Bus models may require a clearance cut on the adapter for proper fitment. Additionally, the manufacturer offers a service to replace damaged ring gears on flywheels, charging for the labor and the cost of the new ring gear.
