Ive spoken to a few bus owners with this setup, and they say its great. You'll still be looking at about 60-65 on the motorway due to gearbox ratio, but that's plenty in my book. I was thinking about a freeway flyer diff to drop the revs, and hopefully save a bit on fuel, but i've read in several places that the engine needs to be at about 3k to have the fan work efficiently, to low rpm, fan slow, more heat. Apparently a stock engine can sit at 4-4.5k rpm all day, if its in good condition, just a bit loud..Discs are a good upgrade, you'll need to upgrade the MC as well. Lite steer, possibly for parking, but when its rolling its not really a problem. Heating is ok, but its a big void for the stock system to fill, which is where a water cooled conversion works if its going to be a daily, and not just a summer cruiser.There's loads of options, depends how far you want to go, and how much money you want to spend.</blockquote>
