Not sure if it is a bad idea, or a god one!? Two things that come to mind is what are the Torque figures on such a motor, and how to reliably get the drive from the motor to the Bug axles/gearbox.

i have seen this done in a fiat 500. the only problem is that the torque on the motor is to little so you will sacrifice accelration i think you culd go just as fast with that 2k by just keeeping it vw
