Yep its broken!

Post by Danny-Boy »

Ok heres the story so far,i have an 81 1600ct the head has split and exhaust and all the tim ware is rotten oh and the carb has had it. I got the van for free in the summer and the body work is pretty much up together now. So now it comes to the engine or lack there of. I`m quite interested in an alternative engine but was unsure if any of the commonly discussed engines on this forum fitted on to my ct box without adpters ect. I am able to get hold of a 1600 diesel bellhousing sump radiator and lines. would this be worth looking into or should i hold out for a 2l air cooled with all the bits ie timware ect.
