anyone thought of or done this, i know not the cheap route of the type 1 but aftermarket performance is now starting to recognize the type 4, yes there is the problem of the crank snout not having enough material for a prop flange but could be set up for prsu or belt drive. just seems like a better engine to me without the case problems, already has the larger #3 main bearing, able to accept large stroke cranks and big bores, and the heads have better cooling already.
