I saw one with a V8 once before, not as well done though.......this car should snap your head back when you step on the gas........in every gear......and you could probably lay tire on every shift if you were so inclined! TOO much!!!
Sweet ride, wish that there was an alternative to the Porsche gear box.
There is an alternative, a damn fine one. Call Kevin at Mendeola and bring your wallet...

Keith, I love it!
Where's that knucklehead with the blown 350-powered (front engine) Speedster? There's a photo op for the Bowtie brigade.
Seen at Carlisle...
Yes MUSB, that little number at Carlisle was -- how can I say? Different. Mind-bending. Insane. all of the above. Way past rediculous and beyond my imagination, for sure.
I just looked more closely at that 914. There are Dzus fasteners all over the bodywork, which really makes sense on the mid-engine layout.
I really find that to be useful, especially with the engine hanging out back.

I tried to buy the Seen at Carlisle machine but he wouldn't budge on price, I would have sold off the nutty intake set up and ran it as a normally aspirated 750 cfm. 4 bbl. Chebby.
Alan,
What was his price? I saw a Beetle with a Chev 454 at York last year, looked pretty normal until he lifted the front hood.

Alan,
Every time you post about a project or a car you owned, an image of your garage appears in my mind. I've not made it to your place, so my mind turns to car-guy fantasy garages. I see a modest craftsman's garage but imagine a wall of "souvenirs" from each car build and car owned - sort of like some of those serial killers on Criminal Minds TV show. Photos or car parts or something - all hanging there to commemorate all those projects - one by one. The kind of display that should be in the speedsterowners hall of fame- if there was one. I hope its true. If it's not - just let me keep my fantasy. :-)

Bruce....$13.8k.
Ok my shop is not the Taj. It's way small by shop standards i.e. a measly 14' x 36' long A/C, heat, scissor lift, Mig welder compressor, shelves with labled cartons of VW and speedster parts, more than enough various tools, lighting as bright as Surgical Room #1. Walls have Porsche posters, photos of maybe twelve of my builds that I like best, 70 plus various license plates, a dozen trophy plaques... a much treasured cetificate that say's I survived the Olympic Bob Sled run in Innsbrough Austria.

A friend of mine had/has a turbocharged Chevy 350 stuffed in one, and no major outward signs show it, besides the steam coming out when it is on the side of the road. He is very skilled but can't cool it well enough to drive for long.
