It's a shame you came on here moaning about the language as I've owned and restored countless type 1's and 2's....and built up decent engines from the ground up.Not knowing me or my history of course but you couldn't be more wrong.
I'm more than happy to run with the big dogs.
We spent a lot of time in the late 80's at bug jam and the nationals at POD..also went to peppercorn a few timesI wasn't really moaning mate, just asking a question.
I well remember swearing a bit when working on VW's
Me in 1991

still thinking about getting anothe T1
I was but an apprentice in those days so all my parts came from autocavan and autotrader ! I wish i'd have had that sort of money to play with back thenMy bug started life as a 1967 1500 and yes they were one of the most reliable street motors.
For racing I built mainly 2.3 litre units using all aftermarket (expensive) parts, Scat crank and case, Autocraft heads, Carrillo rods etc, etc. The only VW part used was the front crankshaft pulley nut
45 IDA carbs, bored to 51mm, water injection and Nitrous, of course.
Serious money in the days that I was earning.
serious time money and effort in that engine !
its not just ratty thats hates me its his soulless minions of orthodoxy
