Search for: Subaru engine swap Beetle, or something similar.
Dunno about the exact model you asked, but it's been done.
Even more popular in Vanagons.

Ok this may seem like a stupid question, but since I drive a 99 Subaru as my daily driver and have 2 VW Bugs... If you put a Subaru engine
in a Bug, what about cooling? Do you just put in a radiator or are there Air Cooled Suby engines too?

Not a stupid question. Yes, you have to go to some lengths
to provide cooling for the 'baru radiator. Easier to do
on a Vanagon...

They have an adaptor for the Vanagon...plus adaptors for VW for about 50
different engines.

Not really germain but weren't those first Suburus(360s?) air cooled?They
made 2CVs look good(no offence 2CVers out there).

Yes they were aircooled. 2CVs always look good.
