36 hp Dual Port Engine Kit
I was wondering if anyone has had experience with the Wolfsburg West Dual Port Engine Kit for a 36hp motor. There is info on the samba forums but was
wondering if there was any "local" knowledge on this product. Does anyone know of alternative kits as well.

Are they running, Dave? If so, what's the performance like?
I'd rather wear a Beetle out by racing it than by polishing it!

Did you change much else with your engine for the repo kit or just "bolt it on" and leave everything else standard

the repro is the TOP end kit that OKRASA sold in the early days so its all bolt on
the origional had a stroker crank and needed a bit more machining
Greg no its together but never had it running too many other projects
should get in going one day LOL
Let me know if you want to get it running you can test drive it
