4 valve DOHC engine aircooled Options

[bugat5speed]

Hi together,

I´m from Germany and have a company called Bug @ 5-Speed. Do a lot with Porsche 5-Speed gearboxes, sports shifters and other things. Have a new project running which is a new flat 4 engine for vintage cars like Porsche 356, 914, 912, VW Beetle and others. The engine is a 4-valve DOHC engine with a own crankcase with 5 bearings. Attached some pictures of the heads. I have molds for the heads and other parts and I have a own milling centre to machine the parts. The engine will give a reliable high power. We expect easy 100 PS per 1.000 cc. The capacity will be between 2.000 and 2.500 cc. The engine will reach high revvs (8.000 and more) and will stand this due to the 5 bearings of the crankshaft.
The design of the engine will be a little like the one of the old Porsche 356 Carrera engine. So it also fits vintage cars what concerns the look of it.

Am currently checking the interest of people and would be very pleased about replies to my posting. I hope that I´m in the correct column and that nobody of the admins minds this information.

The engine will not be cheap, as it is developed completely new. Can´t give an exact price at the moment.

Will check the forum regularly, but also would like to answer some mails on this matter.

Thank you for your interest

Hi Martin,

I have been following your goods since you first started the Vdub shifters.

I still want to try one of those in a 914. Just to see if they work better than the other alternatives.

That chamber roof combo should work well. And the bottom end pics I saw on the STF site LOOKS strong as hell.

When do you think you will start the first dyno runs? This year?

I am looking forward to seeing more as time progresses.

Cheers and best of luck...!!!!!!!!!
