I'm new to this list, so please pardon me for asking questions with obvious answers.. OK, I'm sure this has been addressed before (heck I don't even own one of these cars yet! - anyone know of a good squareback for sale in the Wash, DC area?), so if there's an FAQ on putting a type IV engine into a Type III car easily, please point me there. But, it looks like a good swap to get an oil filter and a more reliable engine. I know the type IV engine is heavier, but how much? I can lift my 914 2.0 litre engine fairly easily, but I can't toss it around like a haybale or anything. I never lifted a type I to compare, though. **************************************************************************** Dirk Wright wright@pioneer.uspto.gov 1971 BMW 2002 "I speak for myself and not my employer." 1974 Porsche 914 2.0 "A real hifi glows in the dark and has horns." 1965 Goodman House ****************************************************************************
