I have decided to give my green bug to my daughter (she is very excited) for her first car so I will be selling the 2110 engine and installing a 1600TP motor.
Details:
AS41 case bored for 90.5mm Mahle barrels and “B” pistons.
10mm case savers installed.
CB Performance 82mm Counterweight Crankshaft.
CB Performance 5.4 inch “H” beam rods.
Lightened Flywheel (13lbs)
Near new Sachs Clutch and Pressure plate.
All parts professionally balanced.
CB Performance 044 (40x35.5) heads ported and valves unshrouded.
Intake manifolds match ported.
Engle 110 cam.
Chromoly pushrods with 1.1 rockers on Empi solid shafts and Bugpak Swivel Feet.
Compression is set at a healthy 9.0:1.
Oiling is handled by a full flow pump with external (Mesa style) 96 plate cooler in addition to the doghouse cooler and also an external filter.
Carburetion is dual Dellorto DRLA 40mms with 36mm venturis and recent rebuild kits (includes spare 32mm venturis and jets)
Custom made stainless and aluminium Throttle linkage featuring full roller bearings.
Unifilter air cleaners.
Ignition is Bosch 009.
Inch and a half merged header.
Engine breather to alloy tappet covers, oil filler and fuel pump block off.
(temp and pressure sender not included)
Motor has done 2500 miles since new.
This engine would make a fantastic street engine for a bug or bus.
I will be leaving the engine in the bug for one month to allow for rides to serious prospective buyers.
Price $6500.00 or very near offer.

Sorry to see it go but the daughter's hapiness and my next project take precedence.
I keep telling myself "It's only an engine".........yeah right!!
kroozzn63 ·
ive been in this car , and she is one smooth sounding motor and with some serious punch .

Make a great turbo combo!
Very Cheap, similar to my setup and 1/2 the price.
Someone buy it

It's cheap because other than the machining and balancing I did all the labor (including porting) myself. If I was to charge labor ... hmm. I got the enjoyment out of the build of the whole car over 28 months. The linkage alone was 20 hours to hand make (but it will never wear out).
I purchased the parts over a 12 month period before building it. (I have receipts if someone wants to view them).

I can vouch for Brendan's fabrication skills too. He's very good with his hands and has a great eye for detail.

brendan that 2110 will set the rear tyres in the 71 panel alight......cheers dsk steve
Jak Rizzo ·
I've been in this car powered by this motor as well, very tourqey engine with heaps of potential , I also saw it go together & the attention to detail was second to none & your not even paying for that in the price!
It would cost $10000 plus from a vw performance workshop.
regards
Jak
barls ·
you had this engine at the dyno day didnt you why dont you put up the sheet.
GL1972 ·
The engine had only done 500 miles at the time of the dyno day in March.
It got 83.5 RWH at 4500rpm on that day but I had it running very rich at the time (new engine and it was not taken past 5k.
Since then I have changed from 32 to 36mm venturis, rejetted and added a fully merged exhaust. Have not Dynoed it since but I guess it now makes somewhere in the mid nineties. Would probably make that HP below 5000rpm still.
Ratio 1.25 rockers would be an excellent addition to this engine.
Regards
Brendan
barls ·
it sounded quite nice on the day as well brendan if i might say so
GL1972 ·
Here is closeup of the left side linkage showing the roller bearing block. Hacksaw and file! Just about every nut and bolt are 316 stainless (not headstuds or main thru bolts).
Bump and thanks for looking.

MMM... Would suit my bus just fine
Would break my budget and my marriage
boof2332 ·
With a properly merged header, carb mods and run in, it would be a totally different engine...heaps more power. I bet it had heaps of torque...Good Luck

PS bump!

Ha ha. Hey Brendan....we can do a name change for you if you like?
Fossil ·
That it one sweet looking engine and if mine wasn't as new as it is that would sit beautifully in my bay
GL1972 ·
Yep Jak I am imaginative!
Here's a pic of the 250psi oil lines and external filter (mounts on the bumper bracket). The exhaust is now a fully merged 1 1/2 since this pic was taken.
Jak Rizzo ·
don't u have work to do?
71EJVan ·
Yes Jak there is a Van awaiting my attention but I need to sell this to finance it all. a shame to see it go.
Brendan
Jak Rizzo ·
At least this conversation keeps bumping your post up.
Jak
PS bump!

Did someone mention food? I know you're motor cooks Brendan.
This is another free F3DK bump.
GL1972 ·
800 Views! Bump.
mountainbug ·
People have to take in account how much a motor like this takes to cost to build, this is is a great buy!!
If I didn't have one on the go, I'd be up for this.
new 1776 = 4k at least
add it up....
+ it's a turn key, good value...
GL1972 ·
Thanks the for positive words guys. A lot of effort went into this engine and I'm really only pricing it for the parts and not my labor.
Bump
Brendan
GL1972 ·
Over a thousand views! People like looking at hot engines but no one seems to have the cash to buy them...... damn you John Howard!
Bump.

It's a matter of patience and timing - someone out of the blue will see this topic and jump at it.
:bounce:bounce - freebies
squizy ·
I'll run it in the Cab for a few weeks if you like Brendan? Just to keep it nice and smooth and running like y'know? I promise I won't go too fast up and down the F3. 😀😀
71EJVan ·
hmm.... Lowered Red Cab with a 2110 and sprintstars. That would sure make it attractive to a prospective buyer.
I'll U2U my bank details.

As soon as I finish building the stock 1600 TP for the car this one will be coming out and sit on a bench. Took Kacie for her first "manual" driving lesson in it on Wednesday. Way too much power and tricky for a learner to master. It will be out in about two weeks so if you want a test ride give me a call.
Drove it to work in Sydney yesterday. It's fun to see the look on other driver's faces when you pull away from them going UP the Mooney hill on the F3. Fantastic throttle response and torque at 110kmHr.

hey brendan you sure you dont want $7000 dollars worth of furniture, leather lounge, solid hard wood low line tv unit etc
71EJVan ·
Brendon,
When I posted $6500 or very near offer I didn't think someone would offer $7000! (Albeit in goods).😂
Brendan
Fossil ·
Could imagine the smile on your face Brendan as you pulled away from them and up the mooney is somehting else as it is steep.
71EJVan ·
Still in car but not for long. Will have the 1600 built for my daughter very soon. Would be a shame to part it out.
Brendan
kroozzn63 ·
i even sell a bed that has hydraulic arms that lifts the bed up so you can store things underneath
i can supply you a new lounge room or bedroom full of furniture worth 7500-7000 for a trade off

So is this engine still up for grabs?
Do u take visa? 🙂
If u still have it, I think with a bit of chat a sale is on the cards.
main concerns: are
I live in perth.
Buying an unseen and untested engine.
shipping.
GL1972 ·
Pete,
I've sent you an e-mail back.
To put your mind at rest I can photocopy receipts for the parts and fax them and also I will take a photo of the speedo and include it with a copy of the blue slip when I first registered it showing the miles it has done.
I can crate it up for you for transport if need be.
Give me a call if you want to chat.

Bloody slow at building the 1600 and the 2110 is so much fun to drive. It is still in the car if anyone is interested is looking at it.
