Will a squirl cage pancake type four fit in a ghia if you molest the sheet metal? is it possible to do it without hacking up the metal on the car side?
anyone have pics if this is possible?
ive seen it done on a split bus....

yes, but IMHO there's a better approach
is it possible to do it without hacking up the metal on the car side?
make it an upright conversion; do a search for "NextGen" to learn more

do a search for "MRRAGPICKER"

I've run a 1.7 914 engine in my '70 Ghia and had already made the rear apron removeable. It fit without any other sheetmetal mod other than leaving the apron off.
