Subject: Re: beetle 1100cc main bearing Author: Laurence Fletcher [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 12:32:40 02/10/06 Fri In reply to: ian beale 's message, "beetle 1100cc main bearing" on 16:53:05 01/05/06 Thu >can anyone tell me where i can get a main bearing for >an 1100cc type 1 or the part number for it please >e-mail me ian_beale@msn.com Hi, VW haven't made a 1100 cc Type 1 engine since 1935, you've probably mistyped, but whatever engine you have, if it's a flat four aircooled job, 1200, 1300, 1500 or 1600 cc, the Main bearings are the same for all engine sizes. Just make sure the engine hasn't been reconditioned, as these often have oversize main bearings. Best to take the old ones to the shop, and compare the markings. VW Part No. for a Standard size Bearing set is 111 198 461, will cost between £10 and £ 30 depending on where they are made. If you've never rebuilt a vw flat four before, get a good manual, and lots of advice from the club. Good luck. [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]
