Decent 1641 wanted

[Tony73tt]

I'm looking at buying a 1641 engine for my 68, it currently has a 1500 single port in it as it arrived from the states. Looking for a decent running engine, reliability is what I'm ultimately looking for but realise no one would want to sell a nice clean running engine. Also I assume I would need to replace my gearbox?

Thanks T

Firstly why a 1641 ? They are not much better than a 1500/1600 and why would you want to replace your gearbox ? If you're going for a stock 1600 keep the gearbox and save the time and money changing it. On the other hand if you want to get up hills spend the money and go for a larger engine with more Torque and you can still keep the gearbox.
