The following parts are new: Crankshaft and bearings, 2 rods, cylinders and pistons (1683cc I think), exhaust valves, gaskets. This is the higher power one with dual port heads, higher compression, dual carbs and the fan housing flat instead of sticking up. I built this when I lived in Idaho/Utah in 1983-1985 and when I moved to Wisconsin, I gave away the car minus the engine, thinking to replace it here. Little did I know that such things are scarce here in the rust belt, so the engine, complete with clutch, has been in storage. Sell for the price of the parts at $300. It should work just fine in an air cooled bus, but won't easily replace a water boxer. located in Mukwonago, WI (near Milwaukee).
