How much would you want for the whole car???
I am assuming the rear apron can be bolted on and that you also have a deck lid??
Do you have any pics of the interior?
Does the engine bay seal properly or are there gaps?

Cheers.

what do you want to know,,this bug goes like theres no tomorrow,,so much torque you peel your ears of the back window,,,was built by a vw machanic of 30 years.this motor with twins will lift the front for sure.the exhurst stops it,as it hits the ground....you wont build this motor under 6k,and then the porsche gear cooling etc.do the sums....
good luck.................

Is it a t4 motor hanging off the gearbox with no rear engine mount? If this is the case then I should be able to put a t4 into the splitty using upright tinware and no rear engine mount and moustache bar.

this doesnt fit to standard engine mounts does it, merely hanging off the gearbox and straps?

It will fit any VW that has upright cooling.Thats the bargain of the year.There's over $4,000 invested just to buy the cylinders,crank and the cooling system. Why weren't you trying to sell it B4 I started on mine? Adam Debiasi has one this size in a 58 Beetle and pulls high 12's,so just imagine what it would be like cruising the streets.Some one buy it and get the Beetle (or Splitty) ride of your life.

Ill swap it for a P-76 Leyland V8 with a hot cam and at 240hp

cold cranking Compression at 185-200 with adaptor but for a 2ltr box.

Think that would fit in to your bug?
