Terry, i happen to know the history of that engine, the van it was from etc. it was from a '91 that had 100k on it on the dot that was in a rollover. the compression was good all around and Ken wilford can vouch for that as well as i. ken works on alot of peoples vans and has a reputation to live up to. As for the "been on the block a few times" comment, actually its the first time its been on ebay. the van used to be mine and it now belongs to my best friend. i wouldnt sell anything, especially something that wasnt in good shape- to my best friend. it was advertised before on vortex and samba but the majority of those people are tightwads and dont want to spend any money for a nice van. my friend is holding firm on his price, i told him he should.. Terry, dont "spew" about something you know nothing about. someone will end up with a nice van. Terry, do you want me to explain my coolant pipe fiasco with the pipes i bought from you?? i have refrained from that out of common courtesy..but it seems you have none. its spewage like this that got you booted off the vanagon list in the first place.
