Obviously the owner has had the fuel pump off at some stage, bit heavy with a spanner!! maybe used a 2 foot/ half inch drive breaker bar to get that
fuel pump tight????

notice how the listing has been revised since this forum post - maybe someone let them know about the impossibility of the claim.

" it has been hard to pin point the exact grunt of this motor as everything possible is fast and in second gear i got booked doing 82 in 60
zone."
"i havent flogged the motor or pushed it to its limit. i just drive it to and fro from work and to the local shops"
And the fibreglass guard is rusting too.

this beetle was at my shop for new floorpan halves and an engine rebuild only back in 2001.......
the super hypo engine is in fact a 1642 engine with stock crank & rods , engle w100 camshaft , stock 040 dual port heads with a pair of 34mm
single throat webers .......
I now realise that I have stuffed up big time putting a 2868ml type-4 alcohol injected turbo engine in my oval to run 9's , when really I would have
saved a hell of a lot of money using this combination......
