....the waterboxer is the one with leaking head gaskets, and the aircooled
engine is the one with a valve dropped through the piston!
hey, it's better to have to sit through a bad joke than a 'my god can beat
your god up' contest--no Pmail on religion, please, unless you are a fellow
zen/catholic/agnostic/peacelover

the a/c will have a big fan on the end opposite the flywheel, and a plethora
of tin and fins.
the w/b has 'naked' cylinders (no fins), a bunch of rubber hoses, and a water
pump
