the engine on my 85 westy siezed and I need to put a new engine in her. i would like to put a new engine so am considering the suburu 1.8L as suggested by my vw mechanic friend. I am looking for some feedback form others who have gone this route. I'm also interested in any upgrades that I may be able to do while putting the new motor in for better performance, power, ect. Thank you for the help.

www.kennedyeng.com vendor to get most of the kit pieces and supppliment with above and below vendors for a few nice upgrader pieces.
www.mastercraftmotors.com Nice vendor with more reasonable prices than top guy place but smallcar has a nicer website.
