Next I tried a Pict 28 from a 40 Horse or something, I lost some acceleration but the highway speed with the big rear tires had plenty of torque and would push the beetle over 90mph and the MPG was 28-40 mpg. Drove the 67 on a 3000 Mile road trip and averaged over 30 MPG.

Nice Engine! Now I am an amateur at building VW engines but have done a few. One day I set out to see what I could do for My 67 Beetle. Now It was an early case and a single port so what I came up with was a balanced crank, 1600, Single port. and one of those Engle 100 Cams and Scat lifters etc. Tried Pict 30 carb. Got 25mpg Highway. Tried one Pict 32 Solex from a 1956 356A engine and after stuffing a toothpick in the Air correction jet it came alive Ran best Still about 25 MPG when driven easy.

To convert to type 3, you need to change the oil cooler stud, the fuel pump stud and put type 3 tins on. The distributor gear on a type 3 is turned 180 out to allow to have a vacuum advance towards the front of the car vs toward the rear in a type 1.

@SuperKenny720 I have heard 1600cc is around 55-60hp. However I think when you tune these engines to maximize efficiency or power, the other stats suffer. Who knows what this engine can do, but just the same I would want it. If they can convert it to a pancake motor. Type 3's FTW!

@knightterror66 I don't think so

How many hp is 1600cc

The clutch is probably shot, and the points are probably fouled. Of course, you probably know that, by now :)
