That looks really good!
The only substitute for cubic inches are more cubic inches.

This web site is about a watercooled boxer in a buggy. Interesting to see how he fitted the fuel tank and radiator inside the bonnet! http://www.beachbuggy.eu/

You are going to have some issues clearing the beetle body with the fuel rails sticking out that much ???

The body was put back on the chassis today so we could do all the cutting for the Rad and the fuel rails. Everything fits like a glove now. The one waterpipe will have to be modified, but thats about it. Here is some updated pics..One hell of a way to wash a beetle.. :mrgreen:

Here is some updated pics. We are trying to find the right way of putting the rad. The rad we are using is from a Jetta2 with 2 12" fans..
