Yeah! Go airheads!!!   ;-)

My only interest in an engine conversion is reliability and
pulling power. we towed the '77 westy home with the '80
westy, buuut next time would rather have a bit more grunt
for that! I thnk the '84 may do that job better...so it's
slow!  ;-) If I wanted to go fast I'd have kept the audi!
or will ride the Duc!  ;-)
