Looking down this comment board I see positive comments & congrats for having a nice vehicle. I like this rod too but I also like cars with big rims & systems yet I look on those videos & see hate comments saying ni**er cars & people downing the work done on the cars. Why is that? Why is it okay for this guy to build a rat rod that has no useful purpose other than being COOL as hell but it's not okay for someone to put 30in rims on a car that also has no purpose other than being cool?
@andavenport because this car is modified to look beautiful, whereas 'donks' with big wheels are modified to look like you can afford bigger rims than the next guy, seriously im very open minded but donks look really awkward and not sexy at all, im not really into bugs but this car is perfect, the stance, everything
what sorta cam you got? it sounds like about idk 350 lifters CAM FUN FACT:the cam turns half the revolution of the rpm of the motor thus letting in the fuel. P.S. if u knew this dont get whiney n shit note the word FUN
awesome looking car, but either that thing has wicked cams, no first gear, or is running waayyy lean. Sounds like it's about to stall every time he starts out.
@TPS5150 i think it's because the carbs are unmodified IDA's. they're meant to be either idle or WOT - not meant for street unless a progression is added
"2275c, 10.5:1 compression, engle fk 10 cam, cb perf nitrated chevy journal crank, cb perf wedgeport heads, dual weber 48ida's, porsche fan and shroud, mated to a rancho pro street trans, she otta fly"
Love it, especially the engine. Everyone has to put a V8 in a car for it to be "cool", but it's even cooler this way. Sounds nice, lumpy cam, etc. But it sounds like it really needs lower gearing; my car sound like that when I try to start in third gear. BluBlupBlup....
in reality that car would sound great. I ponder another 3 main mystery with microphones. my old sube does the same thing. kick a bass speaker the camera gets it. start the engine? the mic dies in bass freqs. Bizarre thing to notice. even with good cameras. mine is 48khz mpeg2 stereod. really nice bug .
It IS a VW engine. I have been working on VWs for over 30 years and when it shows the engine when it starts you can see its a AS41 block used in VWs. It also was in Hot VWs magazine a few years ago. You can buy the Porsche style fan shroud from Bernnie Bergman to put on a VW engine.
Looks great but sounds like shit due to the dual exhaust. Sounds like he's taking off in second gear, guess that's due to the tall tires, really needs to change the gearing. I'd love to have a car just like that but I'm too big, couldn't get my fat as into it.
Im building one right now,starting out as a 73 beetle and will be something like that when done,but no top on mine.FUEL PUMP?Thats a duel carb engine,its a mechanical fuel pump.
my 67 has electronic to the duals. all you need is the wires and a block off plate for the case. Large displacement engines need electric fuel pumps or theyll run dry.
