well unfortunately you may or may not like what I am going to tell you at that motor.

The bus 2.0 is one of the least desireable motors in its stock format. First because it has very small valves and second because it only make about 67 HP compared to 95 HP in a 2.0 914 T4 or even 75 or 80 HP in a 1.7 or 1.8 914 T4.

They built those motors to have mostly torque to push a heavy bus around.

If you buy it to rebuild it, (with domed or flat pistons, llarger valves & solid lifters), you may end up alot happier
