Unlikely any one in england will know what a sand rail is. You mean one of those off road buggy type things will paddle like rear tyres, Its not somthing you see here.

Very few old school VDub people on here, more the modern VW Audi stuff.

Sorry but I dont know anything about those strange old aircooled flat 4 engine, no idea where you can get a light weight crank for one.

I googled "Beetle race crank" and found this.

As Tame Technician said, this isn't really the right place for air cooled advice. You're much better off posting in here:

I had a UVA Fugitive back in the day, first thing I did was whip out the VW engine and put an Alfa cloverleaf flat four in there with a mating plate to the VW gearbox. Thing used to wheelie!

if you had one hear you would freeze to death within a few minutes, thus landies are more popular! Sorry know sod all about these either, looks like a rage?
