you don't know how smooth my van is. you are talking from some part of your body that usually has pants on. I have driven 4 I4 conversions, none rattled/vibrated/shook. I have driven air-cooled, 1.9, and 2.1 boxer powered Vanagons, from '80 to '91. I do know what I am talking about, and I don't have to yell it. You say "I am just trying to give this fellow the real bit. not a one sided ", well, if you don't see the fallacy in that statement then I don't blame you for not using your real name. Ciao "noname".
