Re: [T3] engine swap


According to type4.org the 411 1.8 got up to 85hp. The buses never got much 
power because they were tuned for low end torque and to keep the top speed 
of a bus in a safe range. In fact the 2.0 bus has the same horsepower rating 
as the 1.8 bus. This doesn't mean it doesn't have the potential to make more 
power. Additionally all of the type4 cases have the same size cylinder holes 
and the same stroke clearance so this engine can be rebuilt into anything 
any other type4 for engine can. The big problem is looking into all of the 
options and making a decision.
