hmm similar designs as Carrera 2 GS quad cam engine of the 60's

wonder how the cams are driven?

Sorry guys it was posted on an Irish VW forum eirecooled, just a pic with no info, glad you could shed some light on it. Would be interesting to see how much power they open up.

Cheers

lol imagine EFI turbo on those

i'm sorry i dont see the point, from an engineering prospective its amazing, but from a practicability point of veiw, a subi donk will deliver heaps of power without all the fuss, if its air cooled you are after those chaps at porsche seem to have it nailed, personally i'd look at a corvaire flat 6 aircooled, but then again i'm quite happy with what vw fitted, i can pick up just as many speeding tickets with a 1.6 dak dak
