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. ![](http://i50.photobucket.com/albums/f315/67bug/STA60096.jpg) 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.
