Thanks.....Will and Uli...stop by anytime!
It's hard to tell from the photo that I posted, but the throat of the right cyclone aircleaner had to be modified......actually switched to the opposite side. That way the aircleaner would clear the fan shroud and not hit the firewall....Otherwise I would of had to run the Cyclone's aircleaners Denzel style.
HENRY'S 51 filled me in on that clue a few years ago when he built his motor for his red and black split convertable. Cool That car was drop dead beautiful.....His motor inspired me to build mine Shocked Wink

Thanks, Peter
Appreciate it.....I was hoping that some of you die-hards VW fans would enjoy seeing it and appreciate the effort. Coming from you it means alot. I really enjoyed building it......something about the early motors gets my blood flowing. Twisted Evil
