After I (more or less) finished my 1966 Volkswagen Fastback the "Volksback", it was time for another challenge, here it is!

Mercedes parts in a VW???

I am in the process of laying out the valve train for the Streaker. As I am not too sure about the quality of the swivel foot adjusters on the market - and  I want to make sure I have quality parts on the engine, I chose brandnew OEM Mercedes parts!
They are double the price of the available US-parts, but I can be sure they won't fail!
Special thanks to Christian N. for support - and even delivery!

Together with a set of real nice, modified OEM VW (sleeved and equipped with screw-on end caps) this area of the engine should be good to go! Of course, new nuts are used here!

My friend Ulli was so kind and gave me a distributor drive shaft - which I didn't had.
