Oh my gosh! An 83 water cooled. The extreme first of the breed. Inspect hoses and fittings carefully. This cooling system has many unique parts and hoses that are no longer available. Plan ahead for all your journeys and maintenance needs. Best of luck.

Unfortunately, after waiting a week for the engine, the wrong one was shipped- air cooled instead of water cooled. Now we have to wait another week for the right one! I had hoped to be in sunny warm southern Cal by now!! Michigan is getting a bit nippy, plus I am having to camp out with friends and family whereever I can find a bed. With a dog and a cat, that's not easy. Think happy thoughts for me!
