I sure like your bus Paul sense seeing it I have been torn between putting a 2.7L 911 engine in my SC or the setup you have The only reason I can do the 911 engine is I have a friend with it I can get it cheep it sure would make a nice sound but the V6 would make more power and cheaper to rebuild.

I think your signature needs an update. How many buses do you have these days?

This is a picture of my bus with a 1971 westy high top Laughing . Not quite factory but it is cool.
