Yep, Done it! VW54 hit it on the head.
Just to let you know. Big motors in little 54 body is a pain in the arse.

C'mon kids gather round,
there's a new sensation hitting town,
It's moving straight, low to the ground,
it'll pick you up when your feeling down.

I beg to differ.
This is my Volkswagen, there are many like it, but this one is mine. Without me my Volkswagen is useless, without my Volkswagen, I am useless.
