Oh and since it has been 10 minutes since my post I now know for a fact that and EJ 22 will not fit into an L Bug without cutting. If you moved the box fwd 50mm it would but not in the stock position.
Oh well all to hard, anyone have a 1916 for sale cheap ? with warranty and fuel injection ?

mm well I sort of did, but since I know a good body guy I am sure he can make it pretty. In fact I hot it so hard the rear of the bug just fell off...guru wrote:Use a really big hammer and you wont need to cut.❗

Yep they do but you need to cut the inner panels, modify the oil filler and remove the engine bay sealing tin.DUB74L wrote:the SOHC motors usually just squeeze in a bug arse end
Then skin the rear clip before you put it back on.
But it fits .... at least it would I am sure if I was doing such a thing based on my internet search and tyre kicking.
