This was not built as the gas saver but with a little more torque. It now has over 1100 miles on it and runs smooth and pulls very well. I plan on posting some pics and comments on the build in the near future. This post is not meant a s an engine building tutorial (that is what Youtube is for, lol) but rather to share some watch outs and my solutions to some issues as the build progressed. |

If it needs moved, so be it. It is in a 1973 Thing; my daily driver. |

Your choice.... most engine builders are in the Performance forum. The engine is not specific to a Thing, Beetles, Ghias and early Busses all use the Type 1 upright engine. _________________ Glenn
