Yup
x491 Paul's stuff is so clean. If you want to keep both bikes keep your eyes out for a 250 roller. There seems to be more 4 poke rollers out there these days though.
:roll: wonder why.

Welcome to the site and if I was you I would avoid MPS. 500 conversions is sketchy as well.

I try never to get too excited about vehicles until I can go look at them. Too many idiots out there. I have a line on another one that seems nice.

As always pictures makes things look way better. The guy had no idea what he had, it wasnt a bus tranny the work was budget and to top it off it was blowing black smoke. After watching it run he asked me if I wanted to go for a ride, I just laughed and told him to have a nice day.

Sounds like a good deal, I wouldn't be pounding too hard on that motor, most of the 2180 were built with cast stroker cranks, if it's a forged crank you're in luck! I will ask about the forged crank nut im just going to cruise around the desert. No robby gordon antics for me. Thanks for the info gu...

Yeah and I'm not getting a long travel buggy for $2000 that's for sure. It is old school but it looks like it was built right. I will probably hitting you up more rhino as I don't have much experience with vw,s.

Thanks rhino thats what i thought. IF i want brakes in front I only need to put the drums on and run some brake lines right. I think I should probably get it for $2000 so it seems like a good deal.

Thanks for the input Kevin. Had an idea and an old tank so I figured I'd give it a try... Just wanted to see if there was a better way. Ended up using Bob's Method to form the tank, turned out good with no leaks! :ride: Good to hear. I know how nerve racking putting the heat to a nice tank can be, ...

I think your making this a little too hard on your self. Grab the heat guns heat AROUND the area that needs shaping press the tank in to where you want it and dump some cold water on the tank to hold the new shape. Done!!!!! Heating the area directly will lead to leaks.

What they are saying is that those "cracks" as you call them are actually casting marks and there is nothing wrong with your case.

Welcome man you should head over to the introduction section and say hello. To answer your question you use the 250 radiators. Some of the outlets you have to modify.
