Without engine there's no move. I will keep the stock config with a 1600 cc Type 1, rebuilt from scratch. I purchased a low-mileage case which was out of round nevertheless so the main bearing saddles had to be reamed 0,50mm.
Parallel work on the new heads. Just a little unshrouding and smoothing will be enough. This bus will be a cruising sleeper not a racer :-)
Always rely on the most experienced workmanship you can get. This is "Papa Cloes", an old friend of my mate moldo. He worked on aircooled VWs all his life and now has retired.
But to good friends he still gives his unrivaled expertise. I do not know him personally, but he seems to be a nice guy!
