Help and advice on Adapter plates
Hi, ive just bought a 1971 1200 beetle
Its my third bug, the last one was 15 years ago.
I'd like to do something a little different with this one.
I have read it is possible to buy adapter plates that allow you to mate other engines to the beetle gearbox.
I havent decided on an engine type as yet, but would very much like to give this a go.
I realise the purists will be sticking pins in voodoo dolls at the thought of this, but i would like some help and advice from anyone who has been through this process.
I was thinking of maybe an Alfa, or subaru, i dunno really you guys tell me whats been done.
Any help or advice, or links would be greatly appreciated.
thanks
steve
