HEY! That looks like the 36 HP pulley & nut I need,
for the tiny, "narrow" 6volt genny!
Is that the same one Jake?
If so, I'll buy you a new one and have it shipped to you.....

Another big problem I have noticed in the above picture....
That engine brace bar is NOT going to be strong enough... Cardboard and tape just wont cut it! You need something fabricated from metal!!!
CYa,

You guys are crazy!
I'm pretty sure the cardboard will hold. It's CORRUGATED, nothing but the best.
And Jake....I see....I know the diameter is a little different on the pulley but I didn't know it would be such a huge difference in ratio.
Is it THAT big a difference...?
I have a new pulley anyway, so no biggie - AND I have an aluminum backing plate for the generator, like in the Bug ME vid.
Stoked.

Don-
It's basically the same as the 36hp, it's Porsche 356/912 stuff.
I may not need it I guess, and the inner 1/2 pulley is brand new.

The difference is a 1.58:1 drive ratio with the stock top pulley or 1.90:1 with the 356 pulley- significant!

So, @ 7000 RPM, his fan will *try* to turn 13,300 RPM!
BUWAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHA!
Hey, If ya end up not needing it, PM me a price and I'll pay you by whatever method you prefer(PayPal, money order, postal money order).

Hey...that looks pretty similar to my engine mount bar set-up. Did you see my previous post on it?
Here is a newer picture of my bar with a dummy engine mounted in the car. I have lots more if you are interested.
It is the 911 style set-up but I would have gone with the DTM if it was available at the time. I actually got this shroud from Jake a while back.

I was looking closer and noticed that you used the center mount isolators...interesting. I decided to go with the early 914 style solid center mount and use two 911 style (WEVO) engine mounts in the stock locations. I am sure it will work either way.

I was just thinking about how good that pulley looked on his engine, its the first thing i noticed in fact. I just bought that same pully for my 59 beetle, so it should fit on your 36hp. Be warned though It costs an arm and a leg to buy new. total was over $80 IIRC Another thing to remember is that the bottom pulley on a 36 hp is bigger than a 356. I used a 1600 pulley i had laying around.

Bob, is that an 010 or 019 dizzy in the pic?? It looks to be, or is it from the 356/912 engine??

Jake-
it's the 022 WITH pertronix I had in my 912. I'm either going to run that thing or an 050 I have- which is NOS.
They're about the same as far as function / advance...so, toss up.
I know I know..Mallory is the "shizzle". I'll budget that in sometime when it's all running and reliable.
But dooood check out the mount. My modified Vanagon mount, It took me about 7 straight hours to get that thing built- I don't even own a vice or a workbench! Many cardboard templates, lots of thinking and grinding...but it actually looks better in person...AND bolts right up to the 2 stock mounts! Rock on!
AND I have 4 mounts Isolating the engine vibrations. It would be pretty easy to jig that thing up and make it out of 3/4x1-1/2" square steel, with 1/8" wall.
It doesn't need the "swoops" shape..straight bar would work the same.
DTM #109 is officially installed. Hope to have it running next week sometime then I'll tackle the tin.
Hey, any thoughts on my clutch play deal that I emailed you about?

I emailed you back about the clutch arrangement, asking what flywheel and pressure plate you have..
the 022 dizzy has a very odd advance rate, but I like it better than the 050- the 050 sets up so retarded at idle if you don't jack the full timing to 34 degrees..
