    Which Engine

    72s came with both 1600 type 1s and 1700 type 4s (US only?) so either style could look stock. What do you want? originality? more oomph? how much do you want to spend? I think answering those questions will help you decide what direction to go in.

    Replacing engine and gearbox

    Personally in a crossover or LB I think ( I did) I would fit them separately as its easier to get the gearbox into the cradle without the engine fitted then raise the rear of the bus and slide engine in and fit. But either way will work.
