73notch, I know wasser is water, but sabaru's ej's are too! Are they not?
reason i brought it up, is because you asked about putting a porsche fan shroud(meaning aircooled) on a wasser, which is watercooled...

if 130hp is what you want, save yourself a huge headache and build up a 1914 vw engine, its a simple engine, proven to make good power in the right combo.

putting a Suby engine in a bug isn't that difficult really, most problems I'm experiencing are from waiting for the parts to arrive.
ya, in a perfect world maybe, and if you are doing a hackjob.
keep in mind you are
1. reengineering an aircooled car to watercooled, running waterlines is just the start.
2. converting a carbed car to FI. what pump are you using, did you run another line?
3.putting in a heavier engine, with a huge sump, hope your bug isnt lowered much.

how far are you on your conversion?
