grate bug, good luck with the project. Title: Re: 56 Ovalbug Post by: speedwell on January 09, 2011, 22:44:07 pm hi mario , nice project
maybe a stupid question , but you don't have the adapters between manifolds & heads ??? i've 1200cc with an empi /speedwell sprintkit too Title: Re: 56 Ovalbug Post by: Fiatdude on January 09, 2011, 23:47:36 pm I was wondering how he was going to get a spark plug in the #2 hole also
Title: Re: 56 Ovalbug Post by: ovaldriver56 on January 10, 2011, 00:40:18 am When I bought the setup on the Maikäfertreffen in Hannover, there was the linkage an one adapter missing. I didnīt like that thing with those adapters anyway, so I decided to go a different route :) I designed an adapter with some modeling mass and then a friend of mine did some welding on the heads. Then he put them on his mill and after that, I did some porting on the heads and manifolds. Next up, Iīm goin to relocate the sparkplugs, so I can get some bigger valves in there, and get some 90,5 pistons / cylinders fitted. Compression should be set around 9,5:1
I was also a little concerned with the sparkplugs, but they fit fine ;) (http://www.abload.de/thumb/dsc01400largeot7b.jpg) (http://www.abload.de/image.php?img=dsc01400largeot7b.jpg) (http://www.abload.de/thumb/dsc01402large1r4y.jpg) (http://www.abload.de/image.php?img=dsc01402large1r4y.jpg) (http://www.abload.de/thumb/dsc01403largear1p.jpg) (http://www.abload.de/image.php?img=dsc01403largear1p.jpg) (http://www.abload.de/thumb/dsc01413largeas01.jpg) (http://www.abload.de/image.php?img=dsc01413largeas01.jpg) (http://www.abload.de/thumb/dsc01414largexsp2.jpg) (http://www.abload.de/image.php?img=dsc01414largexsp2.jpg) (http://www.abload.de/thumb/dsc01386large4qrf.jpg) (http://www.abload.de/image.php?img=dsc01386large4qrf.jpg) (http://www.abload.de/thumb/dsc01447largewtn9.jpg) (http://www.abload.de/image.php?img=dsc01447largewtn9.jpg) (http://www.abload.de/thumb/dsc01448largeksvp.jpg) (http://www.abload.de/image.php?img=dsc01448largeksvp.jpg) (http://www.abload.de/thumb/dsc01452largevo0d.jpg) (http://www.abload.de/image.php?img=dsc01452largevo0d.jpg) (http://www.abload.de/thumb/dsc0144k7large0ocq.jpg) (http://www.abload.de/image.php?img=dsc0144k7large0ocq.jpg) (http://www.abload.de/thumb/dsc0145k1largeyqgo.jpg) (http://www.abload.de/image.php?img=dsc0145k1largeyqgo.jpg) (http://www.abload.de/thumb/dsc0p1454largedqqr.jpg) (http://www.abload.de/image.php?img=dsc0p1454largedqqr.jpg) (http://www.abload.de/thumb/cimg0099largejqu4.jpg) (http://www.abload.de/image.php?img=cimg0099largejqu4.jpg) By the way, Limbach, a company that builds engines for aeroplanes based on type 1 engines, uses the Stromberg 150CD carbs on their 2,4l engines ;D (http://www.abload.de/thumb/l2400-eb9mtg.jpg) (http://www.abload.de/image.php?img=l2400-eb9mtg.jpg) Title: Re: 56 Ovalbug Post by: ianmac on January 15, 2011, 21:57:34 pm The engine looks superb 8) excellent head work very impressive project ;D

Tobi Title: Re: 56 Ovalbug Post by: ovaldriver56 on November 30, 2014, 22:33:09 pm Guys, thanks.
My intention was, to do as much of the work by myself as possible. Learning by doing :D Welding and bodywork was not that difficult. I did the paintjob in my garage at home. It looks better on the pictures than it actually is ;D The wiring did take some time to unterstand but turned out ok. Making the new seatcovers for the recaros and the rear seat was quite a challenge, but I had no other choice. When my girlfriend made some new seatcovers for her `72 standard bug, she was very proud of how they turned out. I said " I could have done that". It was meant as a joke, but she took that for real :o So I had to give that old Pfaff sewing machine a try. Iīm pretty happy with the result. Some weeks ago I thougt, it couldnīt be that difficult, to make myself a new headliner. I lost my temper, quite a few times :D So thatīs gonna be the only job that has to be done by somebody else. Title: Re: 56 Ovalbug Post by: 56BLITZ on December 07, 2014, 00:36:16 am VERY nice job on the seats/door panels! Looks great!

The car successfully passed the TÜV-test last month ;D (http://abload.de/img/tuev9ouim.jpg) (http://abload.de/image.php?img=tuev9ouim.jpg) I had to install a heater, as I donīt have any heat-exchangers.
