Volkswagen bettle transplant

[dr. d]

if you want to install a japanese engine in a vw bug, the best engine would be a subaru engine. since subaru uses a flat four engine like the volks, little to no body machining is required to install. if you install a subaru engine (lets say ej20 ang kakabit mo), you dont even need to replace the transmission! kailangan mo lang ng adapter para maikasya ang engine sa tranny. at di mo din pwede ihataw masyado kasi baka mag split ang stock tranny mo

but an easier alternative that wont empty your wallet and reduce the value is to build a stroker motor from a stock 1600 engine (e.g. upgrade crankshaft, pistons, camshaft, carburetor, etc.)

This thread made me remember an old video I saw about a US company converting VWs to electric...

ZELECTRIC MOTORS



I did a quick research and found that there are sites selling kits to turn your old car into a more reliable electric version.

Only issue is the cost... However, some comments/forums mentioned that if you plan to use the car as a daily driver, then the costs are worth it.
