1. 1.6L 2. This link to Wikipedia shows a great variety of engines it is possible to swap into this vehicle: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volkswagen_Type_2_(T3) 3. Reliability of overhauling the engine by a shop with good references should be great -- research and find a shop that has been around and has a good reputation and you will do fine with a rebuild.
