Bus buying season - engines

I'm very happy with my 1641cc T1 engine. As has been said, Bays are supposed to pootle and the 1600 is fine!

 

Just put a big propeller on the back!

 

I meet a lady at a classic car meet last year that’s in the process of fitting a Prius hibrid into an prototype bay

I’ll keep you up to date when I next see her

On a slightly different note, but the same sort of subject. A friend of mine has put a BMW K1100 engine in his restored Hillman Imp. Nothing can touch it!

 

2CV?

 

CBR 900 into a Go Kart?

 

A row of chainsaw engines..

 

I have a 2.0l type 4 on 40 IDF’s. Perfect as I see it. Can climb Lakeland summits. The Weber’s make it snort and it sounds fine.

 

A laaaaaady?

 

How do you find working on a type 4. Are they easy to live with?

 

I know it’s hard to believe.....

Citroen GS!!

 

175cc pit bike engine into a mobility scooter? My friend actually did this, with my old mans. Great fun.

 

The Type 4 is a very simple engine and easier to work on than a Type 1.
Just don’t overtighten the oil strainer bolt.

 

Or you will discover the major component of a Type 4 that is no longer made...only NOS or used...

Easy as pie. I’ve never pulled the strainer bolt off but it’s a simple motor and it’s fairly accessible.
