:o i would like to keep my 70 bug air cooled,so how hard is it to fit a 2.0 kombi motor,and to convert it to up right,can i still run kadrons.
and is this conversion worth doing,
not so much after a race car,how would it compare to a 1916,i would think the 2.0 would have more power down low,as my old 1916 seem to rev heaps but not to much off the mark power,
😠as most speed limits seem to be 50ks...any help prices etc would be good.
one more thing would you use the injected motor or not..............:beer

I moved this post as I don't really consider a type 4 conversion the full engine conversion you need for a jap motor.

You'll get more responses in the normal tech forum, as some purists that know about type 4's may hate jap motors and not read the engine conversions section. :thumb

and

and any questions this is the place

Unless you made your own manifolds, i would say you cant run Kads.

My guess for cost would be atleast $4k
$1k - webers
$1K - UPRIGHT KIT
$1k - good 2nd hand 2L
$1k - custom exhaust

Daz67? is putting one in his 63 that he is doing up

Is it worth it?? Well Jake reckons there aint no other option. Type 1 steeeenks according to him 😀

Would have to think you would get heaps more torque.
IF you want hi po then expect to pay.

Dont even think stroker!
