Aren't there Chevy or Ford forums for that query?

HAHA!! Good one, Prowagen. I hear that they're also quite functional as boat anchors.

I don't think he said you were from Spain? Quer is a municipality located in the province of Guadalajara, Castile-La Mancha, Spain. According to the 2004 census (INE), the municipality has a population of 449 inhabitants. |

Damn, I was just telling someone the other day of how much I hate it when somebody gets the idea of butchering a VW by stuffing a V8 in the front. I liken it to that Mustang in Tokyo Drift that had a Nissan engine or something crammed in there.

You might check out the www.shoptalkforums.com site, they have a "conversion perversions" forum (no joke, that's the actual name) as they are likely to be a bit more friendly toward engine swaps than us hardcore VW folk. Most of here share the view that V8 engines belong in V8 cars. |

Here's a lousy picture of my '68 SS350 Camaro.  Back to the topic at hand, however, I've always thought V8 powered bugs were ridiculous. The only "cool" way I've seen it done is funny car style with a tube chassis and a fiberglass body. |
