It breaks my heart to do this, but if someone else has the means then this is their dream come true...I need the money for other things right now!
1776cc (90.5mm bore x 69mm stroke)
12V AS41 beetle case full flowed
Tooleys 26mm hard anodised oil pump
Gene Berg pressure relief full flow pump cover plus Berg oil filter bracket
standard 12V crankshaft (never ground) with all new bearings and new dizzy drive gear
type 3 camshaft with double thrust bearings
radiused German vw lifters
polished original vw pushrods
original vw conrods balanced end for end
new Mahle forged pistons with new rings
new 90.5mm cylinders
genuine vw 8mm engine studs
original perfect type 3 heads - semi hemi cut
standard vw inlet and exhaust valves - 3 angle cut
hardened valve seats - 3 angle valve cut
swivel feet valve adjusters
40 thou decompression shims under barrels and heads cc'd at 56.7cc to give CR of 6.7:1

currently fitted with std fuel pump, rebuilt solex dual carbs and std type 3 dizzy but would LOVE to be force fed with a turbo or supercharger!!
This engine has been deliberately built for a turbo application hence the low compression ratio!
It is filled with Mobil 1 oil and has only been started a handful of times since built ...hear running in car.
This engine was built by Hellbug and the owner. It will easily handle 15psi + boost. Beetle owners could use their existing tinwear etc for one hell
of a quick bug! BYO turbo and intercooler :-)

very slick motor
I may have been a bit unrealistic with the original price given the lack of replies but this has cost me an absolute packet to complete and every
single part has been meticulously checked and replaced if not 100%! It owes me well over $4K and has not ever been driven! Most people know that it's
not cheap to turbocharge any car, but you will get excellent results and reliability from this motor as it has been purpose built for a turbo or
supercharger. Built under the expert guidance of Shimo (the turbo kid) formerly of Helllbug. I'd be happy to answer any enquiries.

new 1776 type 3 engine priced to sell
With all the turbo stuff that's been 4 sale recently this forum is a one stop shop for a performance VW. Maybe some people underestimate how well a
properly built intercooled turbo VW will perform? I will consider offers under 3 grand now and if interested you really should see and hear it running
in my notchy. Any test welcome! C'mon guys I can't believe everyone is broke...If anyone has any comments or suggestions please post a reply or
email / u2u me.
Also, the only reason I'm thinking of selling is that I can't afford to keep it and I plan to go o/s early next year. Also, my project won't be
finished anytime soon and in my humble opinion this engine would do better where it can be enjoyed and appreciated by someone now!

Hey Pat,
At this stage I'm set on keeping the rest of the car so I guess it'll have to go into storage.
Cheers!

No longer for sale sorry
Hi guys,
Well I've come to my senses and decided that I really must keep this engine. I've put too much into it to let it go and I have decided to store it
when I am overseas. Took it for a drive on my milk crate today and it inspired me to finish my project even if it takes another 5 years.
I've read that the rockers should be removed in order to keep all cylinders sealed and to avoid fatigue on the valve springs. Any other tips that
anyone would like to add? I read that it should be filled to the top with oil etc.
Sorry to the interested parties and I hope you find a great motor for your car / project / trike etc...
Regards,
JT
