T5 Oxy-Boxer

[Pillow]

The "MV" 2.1 short block cost me $55 USD. There are many 1.9 engines I just do not even want to bother with. Local VW junkyard has a 2.1 longblock for $200, good to go.

Do not pay a premium for these motor cores.

Normally the cases and cranks do not even need bored or polished. As the heads blow before the bottom end is tired.

In my situation the T5 OXY should cost less than a comperable T1 2110 stroker. Much less.

Also consider that you might be able to sell some of the WBX parts that are useless and come out even.
