this guy is offering me a vanagon motor for my honda motor.
good trade?
i dont not have a vanagon or anything like that.
i only own a 70 beetle.
would this be a good trade?
also a vanagon motor doesnt fit in a bug correct?

What honda motor is it, how many miles. What are they going for elsewhere?
What Vanagon motor is it how many miles?
Do you have a need for a vanagon motor?
Can you just sell the honda motor?
With money (lots of it) , minds and patience you can fit any motor into a bug. ( with the exceptions of a jet engine or cummings etc and Im certain there are some who will argue that point)

I put my engine up for sale after i pulled it for a conversion. It had just over 100,000 miles and leaked water out of a head seal.
And i still sold it for $500.

I've been told that before. But i was completely honest with this guy. He knew that the engine leaked out of the left head seal. And he swore up and down that all he had to do was torque the head down more.
I couldnt tell him any different.
