Title: 1914cc In A Type 2
Post by: slammedbus on January 13, 2005, 08:22:13 AM

Is anyone out there running a 1914cc type 1 motor in their bus...........how is it?? Happy??? Should have stroked it???

Just wondering as I am going to build one for my 67 (minus Red. Boxes) and don't know how far to go with it.......may just make a decent short block and then re selll next year to build a stroker......but if some one out there has some words of experience that are more than positive then I may take it a little farther.....


Anyone actually run this set up in their bus???

I have this set up in my bus. It is great, I love the extra power for hill climbing etc.. Like any engine build though always invest some money in good heads as I did.
