I notice that the BRM doesn't offer a power steering pump, or a V-belt drive...I assume yours is similar. What is the plan (if any) to avoid armstrong based steering?
Is your donor equipped with a dual pump (tandem high pressure and vacuum source ?pump deuce specific?) that can run the ford power brake booster.
The BRM uses an electric rack so that's why there's no power steering pump. I'm using a BHW (b5.5 passat) long block with a BEW (mk4 jetta/golf/beetle) accessory setup which does have a power steering pump. I'm fairly certain a BEW accessory setup will bolt onto a BRM block. I don't have a block to test fit it on though.
Started wiring in the dash. Check suspension light will now be the glow plug light thanks to greengeeker's findings on that, tagged on a wire to ford vss signal to feed it to vw ecu for cruise control, and pulled the tach signal wire out of the ford harness since a dakota digital box will now run tach off can bus data stream from vw ecu.
Got the dp all done, 3" fit perfectly! Going to feel a little bad covering this with heat wrap.
