Subject: 1/2 VW engine
From: "RMC" <randymchapman@att.net>
I read an article in EAA magazine about the Legal Eagle design on BetterHalfVW
website that sparked my interest... I am researching information about building
my own 1/2 VW engine an intend to purchase the video tape that is offered.
I am curious if anyone has information or knows someone that has performed this
task and would pass on information pertaining to this task.
Thanks Randy
