Sal,
I completed a single belt 16V conversion in my 1981
Scirocco. The way I accomplished this is that I bought the non-a/c bracket from
VW for the Scirocco. Expensive and hard to find. The 90 amp alternator pulley
still didn't line up since I wasn't using a power steering pump either, so we
had to use about 4 extra spacers between the fan of the alternator and the
pulley itself. The alternators usually have only one spacer.
After that I just got a long enough v-belt and
hooked it all up. The pulley wasn't exactly lined up even with the spacers, but
I've run the car very hard like that for 9 years with no problems.
Good Luck -- Craig Williams
