OK, so I have been trying to find a later model replacement for my 71 camper for a while now but have not found anything really good and I am starting to think that I would be better investing the money I was going to spend in my current bus and getting the rust cut out etc. The only problem is that now I have test driven a few 1800's and 2ltrs I now know what sort of power I am missing out on by pushing my big heavy bus around with a beetle motor.
So the question is, what is the cheapest way to get a reliable and more powerful engine in my bus (preferably staying aircooled) and what is it going to cost me? Is it hard to fit upright converted 2ltr motors to early bays or is there a better way to go? I would be wanting to get the job done professionally as I think my family would refuse to travel in the bus if I tried to do it myself (and I dont really have time anyway).
Cheers
Tim
