I don't think there's any issues with finding old engines, there seem to be plenty around for VWs, not sure about the 1800 though as it is rarer.

Thanks to everyone for the advice, my DH has bought a 1910 cc big bore transporter engine so will get a bit more power but not as expensive as a modern engine (though still not cheap though :eek:)"If you can dream it, you can do it". Walt Disney0

I wouldn't put in modern engine. Getting rid of the lovely sounding flat air cooled engine. You could go for a full mega squirt kit for increase reliability fuel and power while still having that nice air cooled engine.
Have you checked out the volkworld forum better asking here there than here.
