Title: Engine Case Post by: Jon on June 21, 2006, 12:47:08 pm I started thinking about a new engine case last night.
For my 2176. I would like to have a magnesium case, unless you can convince me otherwise... With everything balanced it will have a fair chance I think.... Serrano sells original VW cases, and Rimco does the machining... any thoughts on either of these companies? Should I buy?

I like the Mag case, it has the right look! and it has been producing lots of power for the vw people for many years. Power to the people ???
