I know I'm waaaaaayyyy too late, but I've seen this add on thesamba.com from http://www.type4parts.com/cat_type_1_cylinder.cfm. These are liquid cooled heads for type 1 and TIV. Does anybody know about them?

Suby motors are cheaper, more powerful, same weight (my EJ20TT I recieved last week with all of the emissions crap, A/C, power steering pump, stock header, both turbos, and intercooler, weigh 268 lbs total with the pallet!), more reliable and fuel injected. 400 hp on a stock EJ20T which you can get for $650 from Nippon-motors.com. Overall better design, 4 cams. Don't get me wrong, but the subaru motor is a superior design only because technology has advanced so much since the 1200 40 horse motor.

Subaru "borrowed" a huge amount of technology from the crazy smart germans.

jake i only started the post to see if anyone else was interested in such a venture. About putting a subby engine in my bug that's not an option it would create too many problems with conversion.

I'm sure he's getting those heads from Great Plains Aircraft. Or Liquid Cooled One LLC.

Great Plains
