Talk:Engine swap

VW/Porsche myth

I've built a 1974 Super Beetle that had a 911 horizontally opposed flat 6 transplanted in the back, I got a kit that did the complete conversion. This article is clearly wrong. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 192.139.153.28 (talk) 16:11, 31 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The article is clearly mistaken when inferring the Porsche engine swap is a myth. He author even clarifies exactly where that swap originates. I have one. Regardless of it's common origin, which ALL aircooled and many water-cooled porsches share with VW's, The Porsche 914 engine WILL directly to the VW beetle transaxle and fit under the stock engine lid provided it is adapted to upright engine cooling. For clarity, the Porsche 911 motors Italic textare NOT a direct fit, which unfortunately is the only Porsche most people think of when referring to a Porsche. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 199.173.226.229 (talk) 16:42, 20 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
