69mm Crankshaft - Type 1 Engines (NOT 1200cc)

Refresh your classic VW engine’s bottom end with this brand new replacement cast 69mm crankshaft, designed to fit all 1300cc, 1500cc, and 1600cc aircooled VW engines.

This good quality reproduction crankshaft is direct drilled, forcing oil in one direction to ensure superior lubrication across all main and rod journals—an upgrade over early non-directional drilled cranks. It’s precision machined and balanced for smooth running and dependable performance.

The crank features a 4 dowel flywheel mounting, providing a secure connection to the flywheel under higher loads and RPMs. A full set of dowel pins is included, so it’s ready for installation with your flywheel and gland nut.

Whether you’re rebuilding a stock engine or assembling a mild performance build, this crankshaft offers reliable, affordable replacement of your worn or damaged original crank.
