Alright - so I had this idea...... how about we take a Vanagon Diesel engine (which is basically a type IV at heart right??) and we rebuild it with a lower compression ratio as a turbo gas motor for a 914. It should be pretty bullet proof because it will be designed for diesel compression.

What do you think? Could it be done to be PCA legal?

For info on the waterboxer 1.9 and 2.1 vanagon engine check out www.shoptalkforums.com They have a water/oxy boxer forum over there. Some guys have been converting the waterboxer to aircooled.
