No kidding! Note that he reverses our normal conversions by putting the engine in front and the cooling system in the rear, including a very "VW" looking cooling fan setup run off the front of the Tempest transaxle. Since he is running an engine-driven fan he can get away without ram-air cooling.Helbus wrote:That is very impressive engineering. 👍
