I have a 64c that I am going to start a driving restoration on. I have a good type 4 with carbs. Does anyone have any info on mounting it into the 356?

Thank you. I was looking more into the clutch, flywheel, starter parts fitting. Matt QUOTE(Jack Standz @ Oct 19 2024, 01:12 PM)  |

Matt QUOTE(Jack Standz @ Oct 19 2024, 01:12 PM) years ago I did this on my 912 ,easy and worthwhile conversion. not so sure I would do it today for a bunch of reasons. in 2000 I considered doing it to my 356C as I had several engines laying around and the 356 engine had spun a main. the t4 flywheel/clutch wont fit into the transaxle without some serious grinding. and then you are faced with fabbing up some kind of starter mount. most conversions go for a 901 trans and all the associated fabrications to make that work. the car CANNOT remain stock and you won't be going back. looking back I'm really glad I didn't do it (still have the car, running very well with original engine). If you must have a temporary motor, a t1 vw is a better choice. Good luck Randy |
