I'm working on an engine that came out of a quantum.  I'm putting it into my
'82 westy.  The engine has a dipstick in the front of it.  What should I use
to remove and plug that dipstick hole?


Does anyone know if the flywheels are different?  I haven't looked too
closely at them for comparisons.


Anyone aware of differences that a first-time engine swapper might miss?
I've once heard that the water pump is different.  I haven't looked close at
that either, but glancing at bentley, they look the same.


Thanks,
