1/2 VW Engine PlansLooking for a way to mount a 4-stroke engine to your ultralight or light aircraft? The economic solution is to take a full-case Volkswagon engine and modify it from four cylinders to using only the front two! There are various plans available from different sources for converting a full VW engine to a 1/2 VW engine, but they all, including our plans, specify removing the rear 2 cylinders, cutting the crankshaft and cam, and cutting the cylinder heads. There are then a multitude of various other modifications needed to seal up new openings created during the conversion and keep the engine leak free. Our new plans include 14 pages of written instructions with additional pages of figures and drawings. There are even full scale templates for making the proper parts.The detailed plans and drawings which take you all the way through the conversion process to actually starting and running your creation. The plans come spiral bound in an easy to understand format. Keep in mind that our plans call for using the entire case as this is the easier method and in many ways the preferred method for conversion. They do NOT specify how to do the cut-case type conversation. So why should you build a 1/2 VW Engine? Here are few good reasons:

Are used car prices about to spiral down?
Thu, 04 Apr 2013CAP – the used car price specialists – are warning that used car prices, particularly ’almost’ new car prices, are set to tumble as nearly new cars hit the market. The car market in the UK has proved amazingly resilient to the general malaise in the economy, with new car sales continuing to rise strongly and used cars seemingly immune to big depreciation drops. But CAP – who gauge used car prices for the motor trade – are warning that this could be about to change as the impact of recent trading in new cars is about to start impacting on used car prices, particularly prices for cars less than a year old.
Ferrari put LaFerrari online & live LaFerrari pictures from Geneva 2013
Fri, 08 Mar 2013Ferrari has put a new website up dedicated to LaFerrari with details and specifications and we have new live photos of LaFerrari from Geneva. We’ve already looked at the McLaren P1 from Geneva (it seemed only fair as LaFerrari grabbed the opening headlines at its first reveal), so, as requested by many, we’ve now got a Geneva live look at Ferrari’s new F150/F70/new Enzo – LaFerrari. The first photos we had of LaFerrari were Ferrari’s usual studio shots which told us it was glorious, but glorious on Ferrari’s terms.

Toyota will also be providing a luncheon buffet for the residents when they deliver the boots and donating $10,000 to the facility to help with operations' costs.
