If you visit the Type2 list, you'll get the impression that air-cooled
engines are overwhelmed with problems.
-------------------- Clip ------------------------
You'll find that most people posting to the Type2 list are running
modified engines trying to get enough horsepower to move their vehicles
as reasonable speeds.
The Type I and II power plants have abundant performance products offered
at reasonable prices.
The Type I and II engines turn higher RPMs in their short life of 35 to
50,000 miles.
These engines are a lot less expensive to repair, check some prices.
The Type IV engines and Waser Boxers have very little offered to improve
their performance.
Yes there are ratio rockers and Web cams, counterbalanced cranks and big
valve heads ............. but I never (seldom) hear of anybody busting
loose with the big bucks to make an expensive rebuild even more
expensive.
Mr. Robert Lilly has told the world how to build a great Waser Boxer
............... just do it.
Then there is this statement that will probably be my ultimate hanging
offense ........... most Vanagon owners are more conservative than the
Bus owners .............. I didn't say cheap and I didn't mean cheap!
I mean they prefer stock dependable engines.
