Hi Guys
I have a 72 low light with an EA81 conversion and I think the head gasket has blown. Any ideas where I can get a replacement gasket set or even a replacement engine and an idea of cost for either. I am thinking of having an air-cooled motor fitted but can't find any anything on line where I can buy engines.
If anyone can recommend any good mechanics on the sunshine coast Qld that would be a great help too.
Cheers

Steve

Stevef, how you doing with that engine? All the trouble someone went to in order to get the ea81 in there and you have a simple blown head gasket. Fix the head gasket. If you want originality and the van is in good condition then I would seriously contact Stan Pobjoy in Sydney and outlay the dollars for a good engine.

Knowing what I know now thats the better way to go. If you need to sell it down the track with the ve engine you'll get your money back
