I do not want to replace my engine every year or so with a used, tired
stressed out engine!  I would like to do it once and have it last another
10
to 20 years...The orginal lasted for 10 years and would have lasted another
5.  I just rebuilt it because the tranny went out and I did not want to mess
with pulling the engine out later.

BTW I have a 73' 2L bus that goes over a 100 mph and the 2.1L engine is
about 30 hp stronger than that one.

Robert
