For anyone else up for Knighty's fave engine conversion there's an Alfa to Beetle Box adapter kit up on VZI for £175

sold

but how about a tech sheet on how to the install the alfa lump I am sure a few people would be interested in this ?

Bring all the threads together on this

not a bad idea, I have written plenty of info on this forum about this........plenty of detail robbed from the Ricola site, plus info of my own......not to mention the alfa adaptor kits now available from the german firm, name escapes me now......I dont mind putting it all together if theres a big demand, but in reality I think everyone has their own ideas when it comes to engine conversions........if people just search the fug forum using "alfa" they will find all they ever needed to know!

Still be quite nice though to have a break down of wot's involved. Maybe a owners insight sort of thing?

I'd read it B)

I think this would be very useful and interesting to most people

Actual experience of doing something like this the pro and con's.
Also any things you would have done to improve it next time it very useful to others following in your footsteps so to speak.

just about ot get my hands dirty on a mig welding so any advice gratefully received
