Ben,
    Have you tried an inline 4 cly. VW engine yet?  I have.    Its the best.
I'm getting 26 MPG's on the highway.   It has the same feel of an old bus.
Parts are cheap.  Few cooling lines to leak. I would build another one
in a hart beat.

     On another note, with any swap, you add another  problem you almost
never have with factory part, that is   fit and compatibility.  Most
people never
consider this, and find out the hard way.

                    Also... you definately will be allowed on this list.
                                                JOE. w
