this sounds like a good deal to me if the remaining parts (like tranny and drive train) are sound. Kennedy Engineering (don't have their phone number with me) can help with alternative engine ideas. You should be able to find their phone # in the archives. good luck john

Hello, I have the opportunity to purchase a very clean, nearly unused '83 Westy,whose engine has been stolen, for a mere $400. Is it possible to convert this to a different engine than a watercooled vw? Would it be legal in California? Any advice is welcome. TIA. Mark
