Not much faster at all. They have a bit =
more torque
so go up hills a bit better, but don't expect a big difference in power =
compared
to a 1600cc type 1 engined van.
Oh, and by the way, they use more =
petrol (gas) than
the type 1.
You need to go to a 2.0l to get =
significantly more
torque/power.

Subject: How fast (less slow) =
is a 72
camper?
I used to drive a '69 Camper.
Slowly.
Now I see a 72 (1700 w/ dual carbs) for sale. =
How much
more powerful are those motors? What is a reasonable cruising
speed?
Any other comments on possible
purchase welcomed.
