Agree. Many years ago I built and fitted a type 1 (bug) engine to an early T25 Doka and it had bags of power. Tinware from engine to sides of engine bay was a challenge, and I had some issues with the engine carrier, but it worked well. Can't be done in a regular T25 as theres not enough clearance for the bug fan housing unless they've since developed an alternative way to cool the engine.

I used to run a 140bhp type 4 motor for years never got hot good low down torque and was better on fuel than my 2.0 cu motor and wbx 1.9 only reason I took it out I wanted loads more power
