I know this question gets asked all the time, but I need a second opinion.

I have a '64 bug with an engine number F1127709 and a vin number 6411604. I just assumed it was a 1200 engine (not sure what hp) but I did some checking today and I'm thinking it could possibly be a 1300 engine.

Help?

Hi

F is a 1300 number

Cheers for that, that's what I thought but I needed someone to double check. I'm also now assuming it's not the original engine? The original would have been a 1200?

Cheers Lee, this is good news in a way (I was originally told it was a 1200 engine) now I can put a bit of vintage speed on there.
