"Thoughts to Ponder" Many first time builders mistakenly think that they will save hundreds of dollars by using a used air-cooled engine case. Think about this first! VW's have not been imported to the US since 1979. Most VW's in a junk yard are now there not because they were in a wreck, but because they are worn out. The VW engine case has a life span of about 100,000 miles and will work harden with age. Do you really want to gamble your life or the life of another on a used engine case of unknown origin and use? What is the cost of a new engine case in relation to the total cost of you homebuilt?
