Hi guys/girls I have come across a conversion manual for the type IV VW motor and need some help identifying where it comes from or who wrote it. The cover page just says "VW TYPE IV. PORSCHE 914 CONVERSION" at the top of the page.It deals with the full conversion to flight motor with the use of a Chrysler 135HP outboard motor flywheel that has been machined thinner. Another unique thing about it is the intake plenum chambers which are machined from solid 1 7/8" solid square aluminuim bar stock. Another interesting thing is that the prop is driven from the pully end as "normal" but the original pully drive hub is still used with the original taper on crank untouched. A 4130 flange is welded to this pully drive hub that bolts to a prop hub extension of about 3".There is also mention of a three blade ground adjustible prop with an injection moulded fibreglass hub produced by Rand Robinson. Any help with this will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
