does anyone have any info on this Speedster replica?
It was advertised on here back in April this year and was subsequently purchased by it's current owner and brought over to the UK.

I am very interested in this Speedster but the current owner does not know the full spec of the engine or who were the people responsible for building the engine were, although I am informed that they specialize in building full on drag race spec engines for VW's.

ANY information would be greatly appreciated

It was in either Volksworld or UltraVW a while ago- I will try and dig out a copy over the weekend!

are you sure? As Paul Knight has recently contacted the current owner in the UK to do a full feature on it.
Wasn't aware that a feature had already been done on it in the UK.
