How much does it weigh? Nice job hiding the radiator, I totally can't see where it is from this video. My V8 bug is "backwards" from yours and has the back seat removed to make room for the new powertrain, rather than the front seats.
Ferdinand Porsche would be rolling over in his grave if he saw that, besides a beetle with a properly built VW engine would out run it anyway, simple power to weight ratio!!
LOL are you kidding chief? Not this v8 Bug, bring on ANY real Bug powered Bug, anytime anywhere, were available, Atco Raceway!!! We will crush it to dust clown!!
She lives for this stuff!! There isnt a heat problem it has a doghouse like a Van in the front. She has driven it yes, its easy to drive, goes dtraight as hell.
Years ago I said to my brother, "You know, it'd totally kick ass to put a Big Block in a little tiny car, like a Bug." and my brother said to me, "Thats the craziest thing I've ever heard..." Glad to see someone did it!
i have seen big engines in the front of bugs/ghias with the seats in the stock position. With the big bell housing it left about 8-10" wide worth of foot room.
I lmao'd at the shot after your wife gets in where you can see her sitting way back through the window. That reminds me of the Hot Rod magazine project where they put a 500ci Caddy motor in a Chevette, They had a pic of the guy sitting in the driver seat (in the back) but there was no firewall and he was basically sitting next to a big fucking pile of motor meat. It was awesome
What ever happened to keeping cars like this in their original states? LOL I mean sure most bugs need a cleaning up, but...why do a total overhaul? LOL
I considered the weight transfer...the project reminds me of a vintage gasser that someones trying to disguise for street use...also liked the Lincoln videos since I'm working on a 67 Mercury project...only my second Ford, and the first was a Mustang, which hardly counts...
Sounds mean! I'm primarily into imports, but I love all cars. Your possessed Bug is sweet. LMAO at the sleeper comments. I think most will give a thumbs up and drive casually away haha. BTW, what size are those tires in the back?
the Z06 Corvette has a 7.0 liter small block engine and if you knwo how to do the math. that changes it to a 427 cubic inch small block. remember that is also the newest version of the small block by GM
396,427,454 is Bigblock engines with a totally different sound than the smallblock engines, with 427 cu.inc .The largest smallblock engine i think is the 400 cu.inc. Now we are talking factory cubes ok?
Haha real Herbie!
No driven on the front seat just passangers on the backseat XD

This bug is however really raw and tasty in it's own way!
Many have built Bugs with smaller V8 into the front and only moved the front seat back a few inches.
A particular swedish built bug from the late 80's pop to my nordic placed mind.
He also used two HUGE caddilac mufflers to conceal the shenanigans and keep it stealthy until you got sucker punched.
I think he used something between 289 to 327cui.
