Something old something new
If you’re nearly 40 and got into VWs in the late ’80s, chances are you’ll remember Mike and Kevin Nagatani’s old ’59 Bug. If you don’t, then just enjoy this – Kevin Nagatani’s new ’56 Bug.

How to: Type 1 cylinder head tech
Building a performance engine is all about matching suitable components with one another, so don’t worry if you find yourself confused with the myriad of performance parts available for our VWs. You may wonder why there are hundreds of different camshafts available, for example, or be scratching your head as to which pair of aftermarket carbs you should be fitting to your ride. Well, we are addressing all these issues with our monthly technical articles.
This month we take a look at cylinder heads for the Type One engine and discuss, in broad terms, the merits of stock VW heads and aftermarket castings.
