I love VW Type 1 and Type 4 engines and have owned and hot rod'ed many versions over the last 35 years. I bought my Speedster with a nice 2276 type 1 engine and the driving experience left me desiring. I am older now and am tired of clogged jets and the tinkering and the oil drippings. It was a hard decision to have my car converted to Suby power since it put my Speedster out of commission for over 9 months, delayed gratification hasn't been one of my strong suits. Special Edition did the work and it was the absolute right choice for me. The car feels and drives like a completely different car. The finished product exceeded my expectations which is rare in my experience. I drive the car daily when sunny and love every minute of it. I have a car that is dependable and a joy to drive. The Subaru conversion done well is a viable choice for these fun little cars, although it really all comes down to what you want. I have a thread covering the build process you can search if you want additional info. Search "Fiberfab Subaru Conversion"
