Don't kid yourself, Jake Raby is going full bore with all types of Type IV
projects.

Subject: Those of you saving your pennies for a Jake Raby aircooled
motor take note ..

Saw this on a VW message board, and while I would have liked to spend many
thousands of dollars on a 2.0l Type IV motor, it looks like that check won't
be made out to Jake Raby for his much-lauded engines. AVP and Boston Bob ...
the pickings get slimmer.

To put this in context, it was in answer to a thread asking why Vanagons are
so underpowered. Here ya go, don't shoot the messenger:

The engineers were high. worst TIV ever made. Worst gearing ever made. They
are way too heavy for a stock 2.0 aircooled engine.

I finally got to the point where we don't do them anymore.. Too much
liability
