Heres my 1963 bug
its powered by a 1678cc at the moment but i have a 2110 turbo motor in the works.
man. if this were a full out street/drag car it would be full 80s retro cool! love it!
nick
keep us posted on this turbo motor
yeah now that is COOOOOOOOOL ...................very 80's !
Ok here is a list of the bits I have gotten so far for the money pit err I mean engine
Random Camshaft (Aussie made) High lift not to long duration (will get the exact specs later)
AS41 Case fairly worked (Clearanced etc)
CB Ultra Mag 044 CNCed heads 44x37 (Bolt on out of the box pfft they need a bit of work)
94mm Mahl forged barrels carbon impregnated (Not sure if I should get the tops ceramic coated)
Total seal rings
76mm C/w chromoly 4310 8 dowel crank
H-beam chromoly 4310 Robs with ARP bolts
chromoly 4310 push rods
Mahl Lifters
High volume oil pump with inlet/outlet
009 dizzy (locking out to 24deg)
T3/t4 hybrid turbo
Twin Renault GT 5 turbo carbs (Probably a little small for this set up but are designed for blow through out of the box)
And all the usual other crap BOV waste-gate etc
The carbs are going to be the limiting factor on the engine as they only have small throttle bodies but for the time being I think I will have more
then enough HP going from 50rwhp to something like 180-200hp
I'll try to get some engine porn pics up later on as I plan on starting work on the bottom end tonight .
