Hi Darkstar, that's different to a Type 3 1600 isn't it. I have one in Horsham, Western Vic if that is any help too you.

nah type 3 is the same. cept u swap cooling tin, crank pulley, generaator, fan and generator mounts with the bug stuff. Oh and if u wanna run the type 3 dual carbs, u need a linkage kit too...
All u need to 'adapt' thats extra is an oil dipstick conversion. bolts down the bottom right of the type 3 case.
All in all, they have exactly the same 'long blocks'. i got one in my type 1 (bug) pan now.

You can also drill the case to fit the original dipstick tube in,and no you use the beetle tinware.

type 3 engines bolt straight in, but its not healthy for the motor to fun on a bug.
The fan / air inlet faces the back, and the type 3 setup had ducting to bring air into it.
The vw bug doesn't supply that kinda ducting. Hence why the fan air inlet faces the front.
People have ran type 3 engines in bugs fine, but some have had issues with that, and it makes sense.
It will bolt straight up though.

Thanks for the advice,
well what I can do is get the type 1 tinware and install it as you said which shouldnt be a problem.
Do you know where I can get mexican manifold with fuel injection??
I looked on ebay.com and couldnt find any.
