    I was being hopeful thinking I could just take apart my engine and reassemble without any issue since its “A brand new rebuild by a guy who knew what he was doing”  🙄  Well it turns out my case has been line bored and it didn’t have the right bearings. We have a pallet going Painters next week so I’m going send all my parts so I can have a Painters engine too

    Kevin, I took the canopy frame out for the franzifications to be made, and then took it upon myself to have a look at you oil leak. It looked like most of it was coming from the Empi upright oil fill/ air breather seals and hoses. I’ve never seen one of those that didnt leak. Oil was EVERYWHERE! I pulled the engine out and removed all the tin, gave it a simple green bath and have it ready to torque heads and stack back up tomorrow

    Yep this bus drove great! Thanks Unk for letting us use it. I’m betting there will be a few good shots of it in a future hot vw’s. It’s a little under powered and should have got a 1776 but you’ll still have lots of slow fun in this rig

    We’ll get through it. A regular gas engine would be done already.

    It’s State Championship Final weekend for us Colorado BMX’ers! I’m nervous as fuuuucccckkkk! I feel pretty confident that my son Jonah will rock this shit and win the #1 again, but as for myself I’m only hopeful to finsh the race. Winning the #1 last year was a total fluke but we’ll see…
