It has a Scat c35 camshaft , lube-a-lobe lifters , 105mm JE pistons , Scat H beam rods , Fat Performance crank , porsche cooling kit , 48mm IDA carbs , 200mm flywheel , Squareport heads , 48 x 40 stainless valves ported relocated plugs , and a lot of other good parts .

Crikey Rod, that would be the go in 'No.8' Beetle❓ By the way, - I won't tell anyone - you left off the post code❗ The death penalty still applies, I think.😂😂😂😂

I'd rather wear a Beetle out by racing it than by polishing it!

Would this go into a 1960 bus?
Could I get it registered with a brake upgrade?
What else would I need to do?
Thanks.

give Rod a call (the seller of this engine) he will be able to answer your questions and probably have alternatives if this motor doesn't suit.......
