Our local exhaust man has one similar to that, but it has an intercooled vortech supercharger on it also. That thing is crazy.

It will run just fine. Probably an Open loop speed density tune. I'm sure fuel economy is the last thing your worried about in an ls1 dune buggy. lol.

Top center of the bellhousing. See the back of the solenoid in this pic?



I think that's the stock VW location.

if the starter is in the VW location, its on the passenger side and the transmission side of the flywheel, but more likely is at the center top of the bellhousing on the transmission side of the flywheel as is common with Mendeola transaxles
