So a guy brings his car into the shop I work at. I figure he'll never miss the engine if I replace it with mine. I'm sure his 3.0L flat six will fit into my NARP. My friend figures the engine would be best in the back of his VW Buggy. We'd better move fast as the rear clip comes off tomorrow.

Ugh, water-cooled heads! You don't want that--send it to me, and I'll take care of it for you.

Good point. I wonder if that's what these two huge pipes are for in the trunk just above the battery.

What if you drain the water, does that convert it into an air-cooled engine???
