Howdy folks,
i'm new here so i figured i would introduce myself and see if y'all can answer a question that i have. Well im TJ from sunny San Diego and the proud owner of a 1967 VW Beetle. well im thinking about putting in a brand new engine but i want alot more power so was thinking about a 2180cc Engine Dual Port Long Block or a 2180cc Engine Complete Turn Key engine, would those fit? or would i have to go smaller? any help is appreciated

Welcome.
No problem with the 2180. It'll bolt right in and fit perfect.
If you're going with that much power, may I suggest you also invest in a front disc brake upgrade. You'll thank yourself later on.

If you go with disk brakes put the drop spindles on too. 2180 is alot of power. How is your tranny? Will it hold up? If you have a motor already then you probably don't need a turnkey, just get a long block. Alot less money.
