Bug+ls1 ? So I'm picking up a stock ls1 block oil pan to intake for 300 and my dads got a 65 vw bug I been thinking about doing a heads and cam swap ls1 bug, should I waste the time cutting and pushing back the fire wall, looking for front end or just grab a camaro T/A roller? Need yalls help on this decision

It would be a really cool swap but, would be a WHOLE lot of work I imagine. If I was gonna do that much work, I'd get a tranny out of the newer Impala/Monte SS and leave rear engine then pipe you a radiator, tranny, and oil cooler to the front and make some way to get air to it, that'd be sweet ****! I bet with some wheels and tires you could get that frontend off the ground pretty easily lol.
I'd just find a Camaro or T/A roller unless you got so good fab skills, time, and patience.
