FANTASTIC WORK, you guys! Exceptional!!

Cheers from the CB Performance crew!

People forget that when these rigs were new folks drove them across Africa and South America, around the world. They're very capable, just need to be returned to new or better condition to do it, not hobbling along on worn out parts. I"m sitting in my '82 on a beach in remote Mexico, doing fine, just needs plenty of preventative maintenance.

LOVE to see the technical detail, I really respect how hands on you guys get with the dirt of volkswagen ownership, it makes the shinier, more glamorous side of it seem that much more earned. Good stuff.

I have been working on the VWs since 1962 and I will have to say that you couldn't have made a better choice for an engine builder than Pat Downs. Him and his crew are the best! Excellent choice on the engine size.

this is exactly the kind of stuff we love! CB Performance builds the best aircooled motors. Kombi Life is going to be driving miles and miles, relatively worry free. 96 horsepower is really nice for a VW Bus. Many VW Buses have less than half of that. Thanks for showing us such detail, many of us are genuinely interested in it.

As a gearhead and a machinist I really enjoyed watching the details that they put in their work. Those are the people that make things the best they can. Quality over quantity!! Such a rare thing!!

I've been dealing with CB performance since the early 80s and working with Pat is awesome and his crew will answer your questions to the best of their ability which is very high so it's always great see them in videos and other people videoing them

First these are my Guy's at CB PERFORMANCE!!!
I'm building a 1800 vw bug engine and those Panchito's where my first choice and this video is now my favorite video.
It explains just about everything I wasn't sure about, much success and blessing
