@DonMills313 - I'm not sure, but the only major difference between the 60's and early 90's engines were the water cooled barrels, i belive they still used the same crankcase and heads
@72vwbuggen It's aiorcooled, look where the generator is, Subi's alternator ismore centered. It's probably bored and stroked to a 3 liter and lotsa boost

firebeetlese-it's a 1/4/402m track,I also attended the same race.
fuck yeah, you got to love them scandanavians
Look at the size of that hairdryer!!! That's where the 850hp is coming from, holy Sh!t and those tubes look like the HVAC ducts in my attic!
Last Weekend the same car on the same track did 9.01 @256 km/h
@DonMills313 i belive it's a 2.7 from a vw bus, not sure if it's watercooled or not
If you see a VW bug in a drag race you know theres a beast under the hood
very nice. is this a water boxer from a porshe? it cant be the old aircooled motor.
I have heard of 400- 500 Hp from an aircooled VW...but 850 !!! Wow !
You have to admit it is a challenge. Way cooler than a fucking Honda POS.
Classic VW's normally run 3/4 miles, for what reason I do not know. I just know that at our VW Car show they run 3/4's.
man that was fast!
you mean from the old 60-70's bus, or the 80'-90's bus?
Soften the clutch -- it won't shock the tires as bad and spin them
It is a porche g50 gearbox, now under modification.
@EKAN72
