Oh, Horse Feathers...
If it's a VW core with liquid cooled heads - it AIN'T no type 1 VW.
It is quite something else...
More like a drag motor - fitted out with a prop reducer.
At 120 HP, I will lay odds it will not last long either.
The VW head studs won't take that for long without pulling out of the case.
And - just for the record - my electric start 2180 Air Cooled type 1
engine weighed 208 pounds.
So, before was all get real excited....
