[johanm1984]

nice to put in a beetle :)

[PyroBlonde7777]

Thats kinda a girly lookin motor :P

[skiraf]

that can probably fit in a vwbug

[cosworth89]

@skiraf its a suped up bug engine -.- 

[MichaelIanHenry]

@cosworth89 Actually no its not. Its all porsche dude sorry to disappoint, you can tell by the shape and style of the valve covers. Hope this helps.

[furtherengineering]

arguments arguments!!!! this is a porsche engine!!!!! look at the shape of the rocker covers!!! stop bitchin at each other!!! and enjoy!!!

[MichaelIanHenry]

@furtherengineering Thank you!

[jockellis]

This is a VW engine with aftermarket carbs and intake manifolds because the manifolds merge before diving under the sheet metal. The stock Porsche manifolds stayed separate all the way down to the ports. It has been 42 years since one of these engines (built completely from outsourced parts) came out of the factory. VW engine parts are not only still being built but have been vastly improved in terms of power production and hard use reliability. They can now, I'm told by a 914 racer, produce mo

[MichaelIanHenry]

@jockellis Wrong!

[grahamovgibb]

@AcomsRazor1776 whatever youtube nutswinger, you knew what i meant. i didnt realize this was an english clas oxford dictionary on line knowledge forum.

[whatsdare]

now the rest of the car :)

[killerdeamonking]

thats no porch

[louis914]

The Porsche 356 engines had a semi hemispherical

Combustion chamber the vw engines had more of a pent roof chamber. There is no comparison that the Porsche 356 series engines were designed for making power.

Pop a rocker cover off each and have a look!!

[krackanz]

Ive seen people swap these engines into the VW combi vans so the whole engine is interchangeable no modes either strait swap.

[jeepers2655]

Ferdinand Porsche designed the VW engine for Hitler`s "peoples car"....

[motoshushik]

great engine!

[edernucci]

Okay, now where is the car? (all right, i'm joking).

I loved the video, nice to see a engine rebuild working. Great work!

[rare356]

ALL comments suggesting a 356 and VW engine are the same are simply wrong. While some (very few) parts are interchangeable the fact is that they are unique air cooled engines. Looking at it another way, a rebuilt VW engine will set you back $2K. Rebuilding a 356 engine .... $8K - $10K ..... enough said?

[ashley118118]

put it in a vw bug

[jockellis]

The Type 616 engine used on 356s for most of their live started out as a design for Volkswagen of a diesel engine. It was incredibly slow! VW elected not to offer it so Porsche bought it back and used it for its own cars.

[motoinsom]

what exhaust is that? would like for mine

[LFSvidMan]

very nice. Is that from a 2 liter carrera model?

[krusher74]

@LFSvidMan no

[retetikker]

Why are some retards angry because someone says this is a beetle engine? The first 356 engines were made by vw (just like many other parts).

But later the 356 engine had an improved design of the beetle engine(to get more power). So why isn't it allowed to call this a beetle engine?

I think there's little left of the original 911 design too, but we still call it a 911!!!

[josephagp]

sorta looks like an old vw engine.

[AcaAllertor127]

put it on a mower and do a 1/4 mile

[Terminigga]

great stuff!

[pedekiller]

@bultacoman hence why one engine only produces about 54hp odd while the other is in the 100's i think (dont quote me on that)

[laciudadelaluz]

beetle

[walkercr]

It's a glorified hairdryer!!!

[ChewySatisfaction]

Sounds tasty.

[dkjens0705]

If you look at the internals it's very obvious that the Porsche engine is engineered to produced a lot of power and stay together, where the VW is not supposed to produce much over its original 30HP.

[SephirothWish]

Ok now you need a car to put that :)

[grahamovgibb]

Anybody that thinks this is any kind of vw engine has obviously never seen one of these in person to xompare them. Very few parts would even fit each other, even with modifying them. Also motors are electric, noobs!

[AcomsRazor1776]

@grahamovgibb Maybe you should pick up a dictionary once and a while.

"Motor-A device that converts any form of energy into mechanical energy, especially an internal-combustion engine or an arrangement of coils and magnets that converts electric current into mechanical power." _Websters Dictionary. Eat that "Noob"

[hetjaar]

@grahamovgibb what the hell are you talking about. electric motors???? 

[billasohyeah]

@grahamovgibb engine and motor are Synonym. Also in many Latin-derived languages, like mine which is portuguese, we say motor.

[schlusselmensch]

@grahamovgibb Nah, motor is an accepted term for an internal combustion engine. I've won that bet more than a few times. Generally from the same sheepdips that think turbo cars have "intercoolers".

[killerdeamonking]

i agree with george8072.

[marcelh85]

Nice old porsche engine.

and for the people who thinking its the same as a VW engine the are wrong. but at one time in history the where almost the same, al later engines are more and more different.

[redfazer6]

Porsche 356 engine. Oh and 356's are twin port heads, not single. Google it, there's loads of evidence all over the place. Google is your friend ;-)

[piratemonkey68]

The case is Vw, the standard alt. stand (as pictured) will not bolt to a 356 or type 4 vw/porsche case. The heads are dual port VW, if they were 356 they would be single port, if they were type 4 or 914 the exhaust ports would point towards the ground not fore and aft as in standard VW. If heads & case are VW then it's a VW engine DumbAss !!!!

[Alisterwolf66]

Since when do VW type 1, 2, and 3 engines have oval exhaust ports and huge valve covers? Or the fuel pump mounted below the distributor? Or the generator stand mounted at an angle? How 'bout the shroud? The cathedral-shaped upper cylinder tins? Ever seen an early shroud with that kind of intake? Where in the description does it say anything about a 914?

Clearly, you've never seen an original 356 engine.

[shogunballa14]

also, one key difference is in the alt/gen stand mounting surface.

on the vw its flat, whereas on the porsche its angled...another detail oriented difference between the two

[EshenbaughRacing]

lol noobs.. that IS a porsche

[cetcheverry]

thats a vw aircooled

[MR2Racer89]

porsche 914

[Drkadrk]

lol beetle power

[turntj621]

that aint porsche

[bultacoman]

oh is that so? compare the porsche exhaust ports to vw exhaust ports. you´ll learn.

[george8072]

I agree with you, this guy doesn´t know what he´s talking about lol, the difference is more than evident!!!! You can clearly distinguish a VW engine from a Porsche engine.......

[fatqwert200]

@bultacoman so the only difference is the exhaust ports wow what a difference

[bultacoman]

@fatqwert200

No, there is alot of differencies, but its easy to spot the porsche engine from the vw, from the exhaustport shape.... the heads are totally different, pistons too, the block is different etc... the list goes on...

[corvette6698512]

It is PORSCHE power. Very similar to the beetle, but the porsche engines had more power, and were a little more burly then the bug engines.

[qc8]

I just realized, that engine is small..

[bladebdd]

DO WANT

[rbellote]

Sweet sound!

[herbienbrian]

that thing sounds fearce!!
