Bob Donalds @ Boston Engine in Wayland Mass is the way to go in my opinion. Bob specializes on the AC and Waterboxer Bus/Vanagon engines. When I have my engine rebuilt, I'll have him do it. I believe his long block price is the same as the price you got from the VW dealer for the short block! Bob is an active list member. Good luck!
Gary Gary McEachern, Reading Ma. '84GL Sunroof '87GL Wolfsburg Weekender '75 Spitfire VWofA wants $2,300 for a short block (no heads) and has no idea when it could be available. HELP! Is there a reputable engine rebuilder that you Volks can recommend? Mike Covello Storrs, CT 86 Westphalia
