Without serious re-working the engine wouldn't fit under the external sheet metal, the closest I have seen used a 911 pan with split body modified and welded on top.
Also, the watercooled engines used a different bolt pattern to air-cooled so you would have to use a 996 trans too (or adapter plate, but that would push engine back), don't think that has been done before in a bug.. Rich

I sent a couple of messages to Herr Bader, and it sounds like the 993 twin turbo will fit under a Ghia, if you relocate the intercooler. He said his only problems were with heat from the exhaust burning the paint. Does this also mean that a 993 TT engine would fit under a beetle deck lid? I have a '73 Ghia, and the engine bay looks pretty spacious, unfortunately I don't have a bug (I know, weird), so I can't tell how different the engine bay is.
