What Engine has been used the most for a Sonerai II LT ? Issues with your decision? What would you do different? In the beginning stages of building.
 
Hi James. From my brief exposure to this (new S1 owner), the most popular engine appears to be the vw 2180. The most "bang for your buck" in terms of performance and reliability is the vw 1835. For an S2, I would think the 1835 would be the minimum.

Cheers!
