magnesium cases

be real careful doing this - as stated above both the beetle and engine and gearbox casings are quite soft as they have a very high magnesium content....its not normal aluminium.....the idiots at VW shows actually throw then on camp fires at night, and they light up the sky.....go to a speciatist who has done it before......I think it might need to be done in a inert gas chamber.......Devcon is great stuff if you feel you could get away with it.......do a web search for John Maher racing - he will be able to help you for sure
