i was hoping and waiting for them to make something in RHD

You could ask them, but I bet you could just reverse the shaft and it would work for right hand drive.  It appears to be symmetrical.

already, they asked me to ship them a sample. working on that, but it could take a while as i work out of the country.

RHD is a bit different as originally the clutch cable hook is part of the pedal itself.

see how it goes.

Got this one out of Garland, Utah. Was recovered by a tow truck driver who was called to pick up a broken down'70s street Bug left at a repair shop for years. The engine was disassembled and stuck inside the interior, with a dropped valve. Shop owner just wanted the Bug gone, so the tow truck driver got it all. Engine used to be a 78x92 street engine, with this A-RPM 2-piece case. I just got the bare case, but once I cleaned it up, and checked it out, it was cherry inside. Standard size crank tunnel, no cam drop (sorry to say). I had John Carmonne look at it closely, as he originally machined it back in 1984... He showed me all the original tooling marks inside and how me machined it. Cool.

Sweet! But dare I ask, how does the case differ from our regular AS-41 and/or AS-21 cases?

I did have it for sale, I wanted to see what the market would bare. So, I will keep it now, and build with spare parts from the nitrous 2332 engine.

The A-RPM 2-piece case is light-years better than a AS-41 case. Massive lifter area, 356 aluminum, six shuffle pins, high roof and clearanced for a 82/84 crank. Seriously strong, but kinda heavy..
