Some of you know that I am looking at a Speedster replica that needs a motor.....most of ya don't care.....but anyways, I figured that you might enjoy reading the answers I got back from CB Performance.....
They have a pic of a complete engine, dyno charts showing off the wall torque numbers and HP...all Type I VW motors....one shows a turbo'd injected motor and says email for a quote...... So like a gud little lemming, I do it....the subject says "how much for a 200hp, turbo'd injected motor??????" Here's his response.... Take a look at our dyno charts to get an idea of the horsepower range of the engine you need. Click on DYNO CHARTS on our home page. You'll see that there is a big difference power output in VW engines. Pick your power range and I can supply a quote. Bob >>>>>> Um, bob already did that....how much for a 200hp Turbo'd and injected motor? And do ya do T-4s or just T-1s? Response.... 200hp is pushing the envelope for a street engine, but a turn key with dual 44 IDF Webers is $6700.00. Bob >>>>>> OK, Bob....how much for a 200hp Turbo'd and injected motor? And do ya do T-4s or just T-1s? Response..... Turbos are a different subject. From our home page click on TURBO STREET ENGINES. My Spyder is shown, runs on pump gas, turns low 10's and has about 20,000 miles on the engine. Bob >>>>>>>>> OK HOW MUCH?????? Response...... We no longer do the type 4 engine. Type 4 parts are over priced and the engine is over rated. We build type 1 engines that will out perform type 4's and they weight a lot less. Our engines are assembled from all new parts. Type 4's are put together from a combination of rebuilt and new parts as new cases and heads are not available. Bob >>>>>>>>>>>>> Fuch it......

Time to chime in?
http://snflupigus.com/356photos.htm Engine case (pictured within above) I think is sold to a local guy for use in his beetle. Anyone else interested in type 1 parts pm me. Mike, you know you have to call me before you'd sell it again (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif) Everytime I open my garage door, get into my 914 and back out I look at it and think maybe I should be selling the 914 instead - LOL - But then thats how I always feel, I wish I never sold my 87 Turbo T-bird, 92 Camaro, 69 Camaro, 91 z71, or 02 z71.... Selling a car you love to improve another or get a new one is always a double edged sword. And Mike, I measured from the back of the 4sp to the rear frame crossbar... 20 inches. How long is a 6 anyway? Remounting the trans a few inches forward somehow is probably doable and would give 2 more inches in the engine bay without cutting any fiberglass. Remember this car doesnt way much at all... 200hp might lift the front tires (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif) hehe. |
