Wouldn't work, engine's too smooth.
Too smooth? Of course it's too smooth, it doesn't run, right?
If you find the replacement engine is also too smooth, try giving it a vacuum leak. I bet you could rug up something that is tuneable for just the right amount of leakage to give you that great pockety-pockety sound at idle.

Today has been a long, exciting day. Left around 11:45 to go get the trailer, after forgetting the tow chain and jumper cables, we made it out on the road to Fremont at about 12:30. Couldn't find the fuel pump relay, so we couldn't get the engine started, so all four of us were behind it pushing as hard as we could (giggity). Eventually, we reached an expected point where we couldn't push it anymore, so we hooked the front tow eyelet to the truck and tugged it onto the trailer. Drove it home, put it next to the driveway, and proceeded to go to town on it. Cleaned off the horrendously worn paint, put some fresh painters tape on the window that won't go up, and made a video. Got out the pressure washer, sprayed industrial strength degreaser all over the place, and sprayed the engine bay clean. Then dad came home with some armorall cleaner, and got the interior cleaned up, pulled out 20 years of garbage from under the rear seat (pics to follow), got it cleaned off, and put it back together. It no longer smells like smoke for the most part (getting a rug cleaner tomorrow), and it feels very German and executive-y. I like it.
So, dad went and bought a new battery this morning, in the process of removing the battery tray so we could treat the rust on it, we damaged an o-ring on the washer reservoir, causing it to leak washer fluid all down the street, and we also found that the washer reservoir has a coil that has hot engine coolant pumped through it so that when it's cold as tits outside, your washer fluid will thaw. Got the battery tray all treated and painted, dropped in the new battery, and it cranks like crazy, but no spark. (FFFFFUUUUU-) I smell gas, the fuel pump is humming, but I think dad may have fuxxord the coil when he hit it with 1750PSI of water without the cover on it, which we found sitting about a foot away from it.
For God's sake, you got to give more power to the coil
For God's sake, why don't you give more power to the coil?

For God's sake, you better give more power to the coil
For God's sake, why don't you try it? Yeah, power, power
For God's sake, can't deny it, no, no, no, power, power
For God's sake, why don't you give more power to the coil?
