scot70wagon - June 20th, 2012 at 08:13 PM

surplus to my needs i have a type 4 engine which has been converted into a beetle engine. Sharpbuilt conversion which encompasses modified vw shroud which has the type 4 cooler located in type 1 position. f/glass cylinder covers , aluminium front and rear engine tinware. Modified flywheel which takes type 1 clutch/pressure plate. the guy i bought it from said he had rebuilt this engine from 1700 to 2 litre previously so engine number is 1700 but capacity is 2 litre. has weber carb style manifolds but no carbs. exhaust i was going to buy a vintage speed but have decided to go another direction.
offers around $2500
cheers 0414 881 084
