Hi Cyco,
See you Friday night.
While I was looking at your ebay find, I found this.

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/New-1916cc-Turbo-VW-Volkswagen-Air-Cooled-Engine-/190456866230?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item2c581d25b6

I'm sure it would look good in my reek.

Get real Cyco,
                         A decent rebuilt engine of any sort starts at around 7 gorillas these days. My reek SR 20 cost near 11 biggies and I didn't go half as far as I wanted to. Nissan forum freaks spend upwards of 20 and complain when they punch rods out of the block because their pushing too higher boost.

Everything costs big money. Decent performance cost four times the amount.
