JAMIE HAGE
VOLKSWAGEN BUS
“MEET The Hooligan Drag Bus. This is a custom build that I began by building a chassis jig and then the rest of the body from there. The engine is a stock LS1, the only goodie being the PAC valve springs. Bolted to it is a second-hand Chinese GT42 turbo using a water-to-air intercooler. The gearbox is a Turbo 400 with a billet valvebody, reverse-pattern shift and a transbrake with a high-stall converter. There’s a nine-inch out back with a full spool, 35-spline moly axles with floating hubs and 3.89:1 gearing. The 35-inch tyres and steel rims are for transport and dyno
