MY VW powered Fiber Fab Avenger would never go as fast as it looked. so after a Corvair motor we found a 215 cu. in. aluminum V-8 motor out of '61-'64 Olds. Someone was making an adapter plate for the VW trans axle, left the 6 volt starter, put some extra strong springs inside the stock springs on the pressure plate. Mounted the radiator up front with a couple electric fans. Needles to say speed was never an issue (neither was 1st. gear). It was tape $100 bill to the dash fast, we figured pushing 300 HP.
