[QUOTE="Krim, post: 506888, member: 19678"] My earlybay had a Type4 engine in when i got it and the first thing i did was get a stock 1600 Type 1 back in there. The engine bay and valance had been totally mullered to fit it in, engine bar mounts cut out and type 4 ones welded in. it overheated all the time because there was no good way to seal between the top/bottom of the engine and the fan sucked in the hot exhaust. Also for 2ltr Type4 you will need a new gearbox too. My van cruises at 60 and i wouldn't want to go any faster in it. Simon. [/QUOTE]
