Yeah, 36 hp, those were the days. Wait a minute, that is where the whole
engine conversion thing began for VW vans AFAIK. People I knew could not
wait to pull those 36 hp turkeys and put in the rock solid 40 hp updated
motors. Then those those with the valve burner 1500 wanted 1600. Then
some of those wanted Corvair, and here were are, wherever here is.

We may have time on our hands but we don't have time on our side.
