well get a new one.
but I'd try to do a system that doesn't use water distributors, if that's
even possible on a 2.1 waterboxer engine conversion.
van cafe is a could source I believe.

what is a Herhseymobile anyway ?
a vanagon in special form, or ?
if I had to use water distributors, I'd use the 2.1 2WD one..........more
common by far.
