long Block alternatives

[Anthony I]

Hi All l have a 2016 T6 Transporter could anyone advise which other VW cars l can remove a long block from to fit into my T6 that has a blown engine?
Thanks

None, the engine is specific to the transporter.

So you need to look at any transporter engines from the T5 up to the t6.1

2016 T6 Transporter

2016 was a kind of transition period, thus at the time there were six different engine hardwarewise available, Knowing the exact engine code (on configuration sticker) would help even to start thinking.

Don't waste your money on another t6 engine - I have read and seen videos you can install a RS3 engine.

Not Just Campers fitted a twin turbo V8 RS4 engine in a Transporter, but such engines are hardly practical if travelling 1000s km across Oz, especially if it's a camper.

Because that obviously doesn't cost any more than a like for like engine replacement.
