The VW motor does unfortunately clip through the foot well. However there is a small access hatch in the center console and the oil filler on the VW motor lines up perfectly with it so topping the oil off is easy.

Use the diesel variant, there isn't the black bit on it.

You'd be hard pressed to find an engine that doesn't clip into the cabin other than the stock one that has any meaningful increase in performance. I just stuck the V8 in mine. It does clip some and the oil cap is in an awkward position, but going from 0 to 100 in 3 seconds is pretty nice.

I like the Plymouth Fury engine as it helps to take on the monstrous steep hills.

Caddy Deisel and Fury radiator makes sense, since in the starting house you can find ~25 litres of diesel in the basement. I always diesel swap my cars.

I enjoy rolling those two strokes that use a mix of oil+gas down steep hills

Yeah, after play on a seed with some "monstrous steep hills" like you said, I always install a V8, clipping or not. Or at least, carry one with some fuel just in case. By the way, I'm driving a van with the V8 now, It's a rocket!

Try the Playmouth Fury engine...my Barkas flatbed makes 200kmh with truck wheels.
