Hi
regarding end float shims they are the same size as Porsche 356 ones so try a Porsche main dealer or Roger Bray restorations in Whimple near Exeter or PRS Services in Essex or Karmann Konnection in Essex, Bill.

I looked on the various Porsche websites and they all show the same exploded diagram with a single crank shim of approx 1mm, not the 3 shims of approx 0.3mm that the VW's use.
None of the parts lists on the various sites list thin crank shims...
Are you sure the Porsche has the same 3 shim set up, as I can't find any supporting evidence..
I'm looking at manufacturing some, but I'll not bother if they are readily available.
Anyone managed to actually source new ones?
EDIT: - Just come off the phone from Porsche UK and also Roger Bray who both confirmed that whilst the internal and extrnal diameters are the same, the 356 only uses 1 thick spacer, and not the 3 thin shims as per the VW design....
