I am new to this site and looking for some help! I have been a heavy equipment mechanic my who life but never worked with VW. I recently bought 3 buses and am in the middle of rebuilding the 78. I need new cases for the engine and have a GE031755 and am looking for new cases but not sure what to buy. Can I use any case with GE? I think it is a type 2 but not sure. any help on finding the right cases would be very appreciated!

Except for a few small details like the cast in breather (which will not keep you from using one or not)...the cases are virtually identical for type 4 engined applications. Since this is a bus you are talking about you should be asking on the bay window bus forum. Ray

I was going to ask the same question. Type 4 cases are pretty much bullet proof...

Considering the OP has 3 posts total and hasn't visited since July 2012, I doubt he's going to reply, but this may help.
