They bolt in but they dont fit without some major cooling system changes.

yes they do, you will need the gearbox to be clearanced, you will need an upright cooling kit. most likely a external oil cooler, custom exhaust made especially for a type 4 into beetle, and most likely a different carbeurator setup to stock
