If 10 is faster than 1....

A 1.6 beetle engine with the removable bumper of the 71 Bus, 10/10, fastest
engine i ever pulled!

A type2 pancake 1.7/18/2.0, about 7.5, just have to raise the back but as
easy as a 1.6 (on a campground with Greg..... about 3 hours in and out at
Busfusion to change a faulty clutch bearing)

1.9 or 2.1 Wasser (Syncro is worse due to heavy sub-frame), well:

Judge by yourself! i would say 6, not that the engine is dificult to remove
but those coolant hoses, grrrrrrrrrrrrrr
