So someone was sitting around thinking “How can I make VW engines blow up even faster?”


'67 is an abbreviation of 1967
67' is an abbreviation of 67 feet
They are not interchangeable.

One of the toughest engines I've had my hands on. Like everything else, do stupid stuff, win stupid prizes!

Cute little blower would be cool with a little mechanical injector stuck on it.

Yup...
In the 80s Landy did some building of VWs...
He also built some awesome flathead engines as well..
We often went by his shop(DLI), he was incredible.
Also he would often show up @ our Friday car cruise nites @ Flames on Corbin a couple of blocks north of his shop...

Just my $0.02... wink
