How do you like the 1500? Have enough guts and top end speed?

and they are bone stock.

Sammie are you running a 1500 in your 65?
When I get around to restoring my 66 hard top westy I'm planning to
go stock with appearence but will probably upgrade the motor while
staying single port. And maybe add some disc brakes.

The bus last year was Peter Albarian's newly restored 23 window and
the engine won best vintage/stock engine. The engine was absolutely
about as close to correct as you can make one and was built almost
enitrely with NOS parts. The best engine and other best of awards
are judged by a group of competent judges. As for the class awards,
they are done by peoples choice and you may have a group of people
who have no idea of the difference between a bay window and a split
window voting on your class. I am taking my 65 westy that is
restored to about as close to original as you can get. I will
probably get beaten in camper class by someone with one that is
painted purple and pink with an Arab tent, empi 5 spokes and deluxe
trim because they are prettier.
As Will says, go to have fun and what happens with the awards happens.

Trigger shifters. It's all about the trigger shifter these days.

What ?!?!? No Empi Five Spokes? No Chrome Bumpers? No Shag Green Carpet?!?!?
James, just go stock class. Take two or three sleeping pills
tonight and every night until you're past this weekend.
Being there is half the fun.

I noticed the winner last year had an original motor. So now I am
wondering if I should change my class to Custom since mine is a 1600
and my gas tank is now a Mauve with Chartreuse straps. Thoughts?
