VW aeroengines. Suggested specs and websites?

[blue up]

I've got a VW engined aircraft that has sofar averages 80 hours between engine failures. Any ideas where I can get tech tips, copies of the Peacock conversion diagrams, Ardem diagrams etc etc. I want to improve the carb heating and reduce the deafening noise output. Personal experience or website/magazine articles from your old stores would be gratefully received.

Mant thanks.

Does it sound worse than the VW minibus?

About as loud as living under the lid of a beetle engine compartment......or in the Luton "IBIS" Hotel.
