Product Description

1914cc VW Engine from EMPI that is Designed for the Street

The EMPI 1914cc VW long block engine is designed for reliable performance on the street and comes backed by a 12-month/12,000 limited warranty. These engines are built and assembled by VW racing legend Jack Sacchette in Southern California. This engine is designed to give you a power and performance upgrade with unrivaled reliability. This EMPI long block engine is perfect if you have a weekend cruiser where you want it to get up and go, but you don't need anything crazy or over-the-top. These engines are NOT designed for the drag stip or off-road use.

This 1914cc engine uses a brand new, AutoLinea "Bubble Top" HD aluminum case and EMPI High Performance cylinder heads with S/S valves, chromoly retainers and EMPI proprietary 3 angle valve job performed on a Rottler valve machine at EMPI's facility in Anaheim, California.

In addition to the brand new case and heads, these engines also use brand-new components from the best suppliers in the air-cooled VW industry including AA Performance Products, AutoLinea, Elring, EMPI, OSVAT, Mahle, Manton, Silverline and Schadek.

All EMPI Long Blocks are crated on a pallet, shrink-wrapped and ready to ship directly from EMPI. They arrive via truck-freight and delivery includes residential lift-gate service if necessary.

Can only be shipped to the lower 48 States.

Shipping

Our shipping policy is as follows:
We ONLY ship within the United States and its territories.

Orders over $100 will receive free shipping within the continental United States. Freight on orders between $50 and $100 will be $9.95, and freight on orders between $0 and $49.99 will be $7.50. Large packages ship FedEx. Smaller packages ship US Priority Mail. Delivery time averages 1-5 business days after it ships.

Most orders to Hawaii, Alaska, APO/FPO, Puerto Rico and other US territories are shipped by the US Postal Service. The shipping costs for these orders are billed at the time of shipping.

For expedited shipping, you must call us. All express orders are personally handled by the representative you speak with in order to streamline the process. Please do not request express shipping via email. Emails are reviewed in the order they are received which could possibly delay your shipping.

Shipping on any returns is the customer's responsibility. If your order qualified for free shipping and a returned item reduces your order below the $100, you will be charged the according shipping cost for the order.

Returns

90 Day Return Policy

You can return most unused, never installed, like-new items for 90 days from the date of receipt. Items must be in like-new condition. The following items are final sale:
  • Special order items
  • Special order upholstery
  • Electrical items
  • Installed carburetors
Like-new Condition: JBugs may refuse a return when the returned item is not in like-new condition. These situations will lead to refused returns:
  • Installed items
  • Items missing parts or the original packaging material
  • Items damaged in return shipping due to improper packaging
  • Carburetors that smell like fuel
  • Damage due to customer negligence
  • Items with scour marks that show installation or attempted installation from nuts, bolts, screw-driver’s, washers, etc.

Returns must be sent in a proper shipping box.
With the exception of parts that are shipped to you in the original manufacturer packaging (example - TMI door panels, floor pans, complete front beams, etc), please be sure to return the parts with an external box or protective packaging around the parts you are returning. Most manufacturer packaging boxes are not rated for shipping and can become damaged or destroyed as they are too thin to withstand forces applied during the shipping process. Failure to do so will result in a higher restocking/reboxing fee or outright refusal of the return if the part cannot be restocked in the same condition it arrived at you.

  • Call JBugs at 800-231-1784

  • Returns, refunds, and store credits are usually processed within 5 days upon receiving the items back.
  • We are not responsible for tracking returns shipped without an RMA.
Refunds, Exchanges, and Store Credit:
  • Refunds, exchanges, or store credits will be given for items returned within 90 days of receipt.
  • Refunds are issued to your original payment method.
