this is exactly what I was looking for when we first picked up our bus! For some reason there are no detailed engine shots. I know there are a few on ratwell.com but that's about it.

Can we open this up to FI & Carb'd motors?

Yep, on purpose.

I'll take my 5 degrees of better head temps anyday over the fan grill ;-)

I know there is no heater tubes and engine seal, it was after I reinstalled due to a flywheel seal leak!!

Yeah but what about that dixie cup you use as part of your heater air tube?

Knowing your passion for data logging, I'll trust that statement and stop trying to source a screen for our 1.8L 8)

Our new/rebuilt 1.8L

What heater air tube.

I have REAL heat.




DeathBus Tue Feb 26, 2008 7:15 pm

it was a joke, I knew why you didn't have a screen. :wink:

Lets fry eggs on your dash!

I wish my engine compartment looked half as good as all you guys, nice work!
