[T3] Large engines in daily driven t-3's


Way back when, when I started with type 3's I had visions of building a nice
motor for my notch yet I let people poo- poo the idea out of my head. I was
advised that the cooling system on a type 3 would not support larger than a
1776 ( 69x90.5) so thats what I built. I want to know who on the list here has
a motor larger than 1776 ( say maybe 69x92 or 94) and drives it at least a
couple times a week. How are head temps, overall engine compartment heat etc.
I'm pretty much set that this winter I'm going to pull the motor and at least
go 92's if not 94's. I only drive the car in the summer and early fall and
then only once or twice a week. When I do drive it it's mostly highway
driving. 

Thanks, Dan
