I agree, I think the engine builder must have had installation in pre-64
Type 3 in mind. It's really just a showcase for rare vintage performance
parts. I doubt that actual performance was the builder's goal. Just
needs to run well enough to get the car off the trailer.

Reminds me that I saw a VW Fridolin at the last Pomona swap that had
been given the full Rat Fink vintage hotrod treatment. Not really
logical or practical but it sure turned a lot of heads...
