I have a 67 Beetle that needs more zip and no way to I want to be passed on the freeway again. I am hoping this forum will assist me by transplanting a Porsche engine and transmission in to the old bug.

When I was a kid I was blown away by a bug with a porsche engine.

You'll probably find more folks with conversion expertise over on http://www.shoptalkforums.com , in the "Type 4um".

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) i did the conversion on my '74 superbeetle some 20 years ago.
did it all myself with no "forum" to guide me. today, i'd probably consider it a hack-job, but back then my Type4 2.0L powered beetle was sooooo cool! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

i even used the stock D-Jet injection on it ...
if you know how to weld, it'll be a fun project.
