[QUOTE="kleinbusRonnie, post: 395875, member: 6944"] I will do this upgrade on my 68 westy in a few weeks. It's a CU engine converted to upright cooling. output should be around 110 hp on 40 dells i has a webcam 163 camshaft in it (appx 284 degrees). and a few other upgrades. I will also use a 6 rib gearbox. By now i have spent about 2800£ in engine and parts. And as it need to go by a rolling road in the end..i'll guess i spent a bit more. So if you want to do it right...its not cheap. Even if the engine is converted to type1 cooling I still need to handle a few tasks. like: mount a remote oil cooler creating an engine bar, as the moustache will not fit the type 4 engine convert to 8 mm gasoline hoses etc mount an electric gasoline pump maybe cut and weld the type 4 heaterboxes and create some tubes for connecting heat to existing heatchannels etc.. But i look forward to this job :o and the first test ride :mrgreen: Hopefully i will make a thread about this btw: i have late bay disc brakes up front, so only upgrade here will be a brake servo. R.
