Dean K authored it, K8 Engle, JEff Denham welded VW heads, 48's...I think they tried a shortened header collector on it, different mufflers.... had yellow tin and fan housing.

Post by: deano on September 02, 2008, 21:38:13 pm I only ran 40mm venturis on the 2275cc engine. I now wish we at least tried 42mm, but Roger Crawford said to stick with the 40s, and he is right about a true streetable combination. I always wondered what power that engine could have made with the larger venturis. Dean

Somehow I ended up missing about half of it.

I photo copied all of those articles and made my own little book. We are using it on Slinger's 2276 build. Title: Re: did the Hot VW's "blueprinting" 2276 run 40mm venturies?
