I figured this group might enjoy seeing my Christmas present to myself. These are for my 72 VW bus. They cost more THAN my bus. LOL.....I did not opt for the Ceramic coating. But as stated these are Camper Specials, New 1.8 AMC castings, Type4store's 2 liter sized SS valves, springs, keepers, etc... modified ports, proprietary valve seats that you can see are inserted deeper, plus a notch for an under plug CHT thermocouple.
Still to come is a Type4store 9590 cam kit with cut to fit Chromoly push rods, solid lifters, swivel foot adjusters, I forget what else. Merry Christmas to me. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Len won't rebuild old castings! These are new AMC 1.8L heads that he rebuilds. I am running a set in my 77 Westy, definately the way to go to run cooler with the 9590 cam setup too. The 100+ hp in a bus is really nice too.

I bought some rings but the bottom ring assembly was 4mm thick. too big for the 3mm trough. Sent them back and suggested that they stop selling them as suitable for 93mm type 4 pistons. |
