The guy i bought it from had someone do it. Gas mileage is surprisingly great for a bus. I think I might be getting 16 to 17. It's a fairly new motor. There's some pictures of my bus around on Dan and Katrina's site. I'll send you a pic of the engine when i get home from my dad's. The bus's name is Sunnie. Next big thing for her is a good sandblastin, some body work, and a new paint job. On 4/7/07, Ricardo <busman_69@xxxxxxxxx> wrote:
I have the 2000cc as well, but fuel injected. Did you convert it yourself?
