Should I change my Engine ?
Currently I have a 1600 sitting in my beetle, with a 12 Volt but no Alternator, only a Generator. I will need to get a Alternator for sure for around
$300 + $100 Install. It is a recomditioned motor --
Now my option: a reconditioned 1600 motor with Cams and New Pistons and Barrels also a Alternator installed going for $800 AUD ... now, is that a good
deal that I shouldn't miss? $800 includes installation.
Please give me some advice 
Cheers!
Don.

Hi ikube,
Do you know the seller? Is there a warranty with the motor? Is there proof it IS rebuilt?
If yes to all get it. You can't go wrong...

depends on history of motor
