Engine identification please

In this link, there is a blue beetle at the bottom of the page ... can somebody ID this engine ? My German is not so good



Thanks

...maybe Martin Bott knows. The product section of that site has his five speed conversion parts.

Sandeep, the only text I see is 'spater mehr', which means 'more later'.
The pic on the left is just a flyer for the shop, explaining what they do.
No mention of what's in the car.

Rob.

Hi, it seems they are being really tight liped about this very nicely done piece of work. I would love very much to learn more about this car. One thing for sure is; it can be done.

It looks like a Porsche flat 6 to me, but I can't see the 5th and 6th stub pipe for the header on each side.

There looks to be a sub frame of some sort as well.

Yes it is a 6 cylinder. I imported the engine picture and blow it up, I could see the right bank three intake runners.
