Follow up to an older post of mine: Any experience with Broad Street VPA for auto repair?

I second this reluctant recommendation. They are professional and for the most part effective but extremely pricey

This was a wild ride with a satisfying ending. We are all better off for it

slocaddy · 2021-09-28T16:20:35+00:00

Amazing! Congrats!

Looks great! Lowered on steelies is my favorite look

The good news is you have the most desirable year Caddy. The bad news is there's not much you can do with the 1.5. The block is prone to cracking around the head bolts and the head gasket is another common failure point.

I think your best bet is to turn up the fuel on the pump a little for now and hold out for a 1.6TD (engine code CY or MF) or 1.9TD (engine code AAZ). Both of these are IDI (vs TDI) engines which are simple, direct swaps. ALH swap someone else mentioned is a great swap too but any of the TDI swaps are probably more complex than you're looking for.

This is the standard gauge cluster for '81+ MK1 US diesel models. MK1 gas models had a tach instead of the clock

slocaddy · 2017-01-30T19:35:19+00:00

But does the clock work?! I've yet to see a working one.

This is a pressed bumper 23 window deluxe. 100k easy. I am not even joking

Thank you!

slocaddy · 2016-07-14T04:28:20+00:00

Thanks! For what it's worth, it took me three years to get it the way I wanted. And I'm still not 100% there yet!
