The thing I was most impressed with about Robert's van (besides the
effortless 70 mph cruisin',and silky,quiet acceleration) is how quickly
the engine catches after you hit the key. We are talking � seconds!
        What I didn't like was this engine produces _NO!_ heat!! It would
take an eight hour trip to heat an 8oz can of beany-weenies!! No manifold
destiny here (obscure reference).
