OK, 4 years ago but nothing much has changed. I quit building the 1835s for people for street use and went to the 1776. They last a lot longer. The 40mms were a very popular carb. At the time Orange County had a VW shop on every corner. Times have changed a lot!
Everything you mentioned is not new to someone who has ben around Volkswagen for a long time and difference in the motors capabilities, which is normal for 1835 vs 1776 its ben like that as long as I can remember since early 80s as well as 2180 witch were very common set up back n day nowadays the new vw generation wants 2liter motors because all they know they want more power witch most of them don't know anything about motors that's why there is people like you as mentioned here that you build them 17.s vs 18 any motor if you build correctly and use proper oil fan coolers will function without issues its ben like this for over 40+ years.
Yes, it is the engine fan that is making the whistle. These are loud clunky machines by nature and i do not have any of even the original soundproofing.
Conrad haven’t had the car on rolling road so far so do not know power yet. Will time 0-60 next season after i have installed 1.25 rockers this winter.
@@camden2941 never got round to that yet. The rockers still in their box too, and i even have a lambda for it just waiting to be plugged in.. Might take a while but i will get there some day

@TECATE ALOHA🌺 62 beautiful very nice year is American cali version left hand drive ? You put 1776 in already. Wow, nice man, I bit looking very nice in Big Island 🏝 👍 getting lots looks and hanging out at beach and at shows meets heck yahh send me some pics do have instagram page send me your info will follow i got bitchen page myself lots vw music. More 🤙🤘
Most of these 17.S motors, the engine sound, are way more enjoyable than carburetors from looking through windshield its not that quick of motor because a few that I have experienced rip ground in 1st gear 2nd with amazing power if built right if you go with wrong components makes big difference on output 40 carb is not necessary for this engine if the builder time it right balancing crank vales, cam it will have more power most of drag racing is won with 1776 this guy must not be pushing throudle 1 race I went on test track he spin tires allway down whole half strip that is half block long in first gear I'm probably making this guy think right about now here in VId 🤣🤭😏
James Evans i havent jetted or tuned it properly yet, still have transition issues. I will need to take it to a rolling road later on. I think i now have 52 idle, 180 air, 110 main, F11 tubes
Have not had the chance to take it there, but I just settled to 50 idle, 180 air, 115 mains, with 12 degrees timing (009 curve). It is running very good now with no transition issues and pulls with really low rpm even on 4th gear. i might still try with 14 degrees advance and 45 idles at some point, just to get it perfect. But it is very good already.
Why on earth would you build a 1776 amd use a stock cam? These things were built severely detuned. That 1776 might be making 60hp....maybe. put an Engle 110 in it at least and it will be maing 80hp
Chris Roberts well this would be my exact same question to the previous owner, who built the engine... i can’t figure it out either. This thing should and will have W110 and 1.25 rockers.
Because a stock cam is more easy to drive, to tune the engine, you wil have great torque from 1000 rpm up to 3500rpm. Its reliable, less valve train wear. Im running a 1915cc with stock cam and 40x35.5 valves, stock rockers, 36idf webers and having 95hp. Really nice to drive, never want a aftermarket cam anymore. So i understand the engine builder.
By the way, a stock 1600 with dual dellorto 36 and stinger exhaust makes 64hp in eninge dyno. And a well tuned stock 1600 will have 55 to 57hp. Think this guy 1776 will be more than 70hp
@@humbertoamendozac7458 i do not have personal experience of such high end engine so i cannot recommend anything spesific for your application. But generally with hot motors i would be wary of unnecessary tall last 4th gears, especially with taller sidewall wheels like 205/70. With what i’ve learned from a couple of friends cars with taller 4th gears, you cant really drive with certain street speeds on 4th gear anymore and you also lower the fan speed that might create heat issues. On that note i feel the 1500 gearing is a very good all round option. But i would talk with someone more knowledgeable with actual experience of this first.

Best sound in the whole world!!!! I love the VW käfer
@Zayden Jose Shut the hell up no one asked
Your pushing it whole world 🤣🤭🤭😏
Nice! My son and I are working on a 69 Ghia that we saved from the car crushers 👍 We have some videos up and will be adding more as we progress 👍✌️
You missed years by 2 to put you in category no value. 69 watch how much you invest in it almost unbelievable to sell it in later time
Such a wonderful sound!
music to my ears..great video
Nice car man, looks nearly identical to mine inside... so simple yet classy looking!
Identical to yours 🤣😅😮💨😖🤭
😀👋🤙
That banjo sounds awesome 😁
Haha! 😅 I’m glad i ditched that steering wheel
sounds sweet dude
I remember when rolling in my friend's 56 oval window 2180 daul 44..badass
Old school 2180 I hope then you got a good topic 👍
Prima sound!
Starker Motor.

Beautiful
What is the whistling noise as you accelerate? Engine fan? Induction noise?
Yes, it is the engine fan that is making the whistle. These are loud clunky machines by nature and i do not have any of even the original soundproofing.
Sounds awesome? how much power are you making? Ever timed 0-60mph?
Conrad haven’t had the car on rolling road so far so do not know power yet. Will time 0-60 next season after i have installed 1.25 rockers this winter.

Very impressive
Sweet ride! I gotta find me another one.
Make sure you don't get rust bucket. Don't get a year that you see in video, which is way later model made I'm Mexico 🤑super beetle, not worth dime.

At what jetting are you using for a 1776 carbs 40 ?
settled to 50 idle, 180 air, 115 mains, with 12 degrees static timing (009 curve). A bit on the rich side i guess.
So nice!!! Great sounding rig. What exhaust?
Thanks, ceramic header with Phat Boy exhaust
Do you know the compression ratio?
It's secret ask the 👽 they will help you build a Star ship 🛸 🤔😏
Ma nn va?? 🤔
Are people typically happy after going to a 1776 from a stock motor? From what I see the power difference isn’t much different than stock.
What do you have to do with the stock motor to get this kinda performance out of it.

@daalhoffarm hello 👋 what can you do with 1600cc short block stock German 🤔
What size of transmission is with that engine?
AC code (1500) transmission with 4.125 final drive. In my opinion the best combination there is for bigger engine and 205/70 rear wheels.
