Man, that looks like a blast !  I don't know what powertrain is in it, most likely VW.  There's a ton of performance for VW, out there.  I had a Meyers Manx in the late 80's running a fire breathing 2200cc.  I had the respect of the "cool" V-8" guy's.  Handled great too.   Get us some more pictures !   Tell us more about it.
