Hey Chris, Can you start the engine like this but just have the transmission bolted on the engine?

Hi i have a quick question Chris,I have a 68 vw bug with a 1200cc motor,Well that's what i think it is because of the engine case code starts with D0.I'm confused on knowing what the real size of my motor is because it's a dual port and i recently put on 34 icts dual carbs.Thanks for your time hope to hear from you.

@OIID nah thats a 1600 motor you have bud.

Love VWs, worked on them my whole life. Actually you don't have to have a bell housing, they sell a piece that uses the starter holes and the one right below it to start one, its made out of something like Plastic. I bought a bunch of parts and it was in a box, otherwise I wouldn't have know about them. lol.
