I inquired about a 2161, which is a popular type 2 engine for low end torque. Most people think in terms of wild HP claims, and giant displacement. I want low end torque so I can haul stuff and pull a trailer. Next I'm going to investigate 5 speeds. Then check on induction options. (Twin carbs are a waste in my world.) Its a process to create a list, then compare the What-Ifs to buying a new car. The numbers will make the decision...

I've had a crappy day. So this time I'm putting up silly crazy pic's to lighten the mood!

Homemade Jato booster rocket powered mini bus, anyone?
