Hello.

I have a 1972 1200 beetle and would like to install a subaru turbo lump.

I have no idea which engine to get but obviously want the cheapest/ easyiest one with the most power.

i currently have a daily ploder 1200 engine with the 1200 gearbox.

all Brakes and body is sorted so i dont have to worry about that.

Basically could some give me a full list of all the parts i need, such as engine, specific looms, gerboxes.......everything i need to do the conversion,.

Thanks
