Hi -

Some of you may remember that my Brown 85 Westy with Tennessee plates spent
time at Metric Motors, Anderson, CA getting a Boston Exchange 2.1 engine
installed.  I am now glad to say that the vehicle runs great and my wife is
pleased with her new engine after traveling from Anderson to Portland to
Arco, Idaho.  (State highways, so as to not exceed break in speeds)

The choices that I looked at were the Boston Bob 2.1 stock outright or the
GoWesty 2.2 exchange, for a few more dollars.  Because I suspected that the
old engine might not meet the GoWesty engine core checklist, I decided that
by going with Bob, I could cap my cost and not have to eat a lot of core
charges.

Next up is my 84 Westy.  After seeing and hearing Benny's new Subaru powered
Westy, I am seriously thinking about going down that path, but in white.
The engine sound is simply glorious!  I have been told that the Subaru
engine will make a van go faster; seeing and hearing it is so much more
impressive.
