Being the new Type 4 guy, I have to add that the T4 1700 ran from 68 HP (carbed 68-73, Engine prefixes V and Z) to 80 HP (69-73 FI , prefixes W and EA) . The 1800 only hit a high of 85 HP. Weird. Cant add anything about the gas tho. -rj 'Keeper of the Unloved' >---------- >From: Keith Park[SMTP:TopNotchResto@worldnet.att.net] >Sent: Wednesday, March 31, 1999 1:10 PM >To: type3@vwtype3.org >Subject: Re: [T3] 71 T4 1700 in a T3? > >Well.. your numbers are off. it doesnt take 98 octane it will be fine on >92, the 1700 in the BUS had only 63HP stock so I know that the T4 versions >were not much more if more at all. >and at 88K its pretty much had it, and these motors are VERY expensive to >rebuild.
