This is a complete turn key 2900 cc engine , Pauter super pro heads , Porsche cooling kit , CB 48mm fuel injection kit , all freshened 8 hrs ago and dyno'd @ 217 HP and a shit load of torque . This is a complete bolt in deal with the off road exhaust system included for $ 4500 . This is located in Wollongong NSW and can be shipped anywhere , thanks ROD. 02-42729920 .

I don't even own a type 1...or even a VW for that matter. This makes me especially qualified to pass out recommendations and technical advice on the internet.😁

Super-qualifed, Owen! You could easily be a politician.....Prime Minister, even.
I'd rather wear a Beetle out by racing it than by polishing it!

With the pauter heads its good for the 1/4 but not so good for the street.
This is my Volkswagen, there are many like it, but this one is mine. Without me my Volkswagen is useless, without my Volkswagen, I am useless.

Yeah. As 66deluxe has said. I would have to have it completely rebuilt for it to be able to comfortably do 50000 kms every year in my baja. Might be a good base to start with though.
