Didn't Sound good from start.... To be true, it's sound horribly wrong from start....

50+ years ago we sold way more MC's & wheel cylinders for VW's then rebuild kits. IDK why they collected water, the bottom of the bores would have a huge pit, usually about 1/16"deep 1/4 to 5/8 wide & long. Also, there's air cooled VW mechanical sounds and there's rod knocks and there's wishful thinking!!

I’ve heard many rod knocks over my many years of being around motors. I’ve owned many trucks with my businesses and motors go bad. They’ve usually sounded liked a sledge hammer inside the motor. I didn’t hear that with this little 1600. That being said I won’t be making the mistake of not refreshing the bottom end again.

That sounded like it has no oil pressure or worse right from the start!

I tore the motor down today, publishing now. There was definitely some wear in the pump and bearings which would cause low oil pressure. Next time I rebuild an old motor it will be in its entirety not just the top end. Check out today’s video to see the damage. Thanks

yeah, i mean you could hear that thing clattering like it had no oil in it but you took it down the road without a care in the world anyways and question if there's a hole in the block. i could tell you what happened without looking at the engine.

I’ll never just put a fresh top end on a motor then send it again. Freshen up the bottom end also always.

I couldn’t when I was driving because the exhaust was so loud but once I watched the video I’m like was that motor knocking from the get go? Oh well got a rebuildable long block coming next week. The buggy will be up and running in no time.
