New avatar I see...Did you engrave your initials in the bottom left corner?  I1t

Building a new motor?  s#r


Thanks...JBKs or known in the trade as......"Valve Tap Specials"!!  :icon_cheesygrin: :icon_cheesygrin:

special casting made in China and very limited due to the fact they were cast out of old beer cans and  Poof when heated past 200 degrees! also the valves are the same used in King Midget rat rods....


No new motor, I was just looking through my old photos for the avatar Shawn made of my bus and I can't find it so I saw the photo of the heads on my bus and used it.

JBKs are very special heads and I first posted a picture of them when I first got my bus because I was sshocked* to see a brand new set of them on the bus along with an invoice (one of many) in the glove
box from GB for the heads, rocker assy's and adjusting screws. They are made of China high grade 6061 aluminum and they were so expensive they were discontinued for lack of sales. The only drawback with them is when they get above 200o they start to melt, thats why I only drive my bus when its raining, cold or snowing the scoops on the sides of the bus suck the rain, cold and snow into the engine compartment and keeps it under 200o.

I know VW's aren't made to go out in any kind of weather except  :icon_sunny: but I do what I have to do if I want to drive my VW.

I wonder if its long enough to sleep in.


 Greg was wanting to sleep in something else besides a tent, and this is much cheaper than a camper!

 "It even has the original roof rack cut to size!"

I never noticed that line... that's like double fail. Matt I doubt it's big enough to sleep in, maybe if I was in the fetal position.  @7@

You didn't win because he never really was killed. He got out of German land and lived in China for another 30 years, he opened a small business making JBK heads, thats why they are worth millions now.

Na...
He really did get cooked in that bunker but..I heard that a "little bit of adolph" was in every beetle made. Just look under the passenger rear fender...and you thought that was a "Charcoal canister"! yea right!
