It's not flat, it's horizontally opposed!
They are actually one of the simplest engines around, I had it down to a complete rebuild taking about 2 hours LOL
The internals are incredibly cheap, a new crankshaft is like $19.00

Yeah, I'm looking at ads for full-out, 2.5 litre brand new motors for like $2-3K, and laughing to myself.
You're in Port St. Lucie? Do you get your stabilizer bars bent up at Saner? I get work done by them once in a while. Good guys.
I have a friend in Melbourne. I was going to go visit over easter, but flights are more than $500! That's retarded.
