They do have 4 bolts, but I suppose you can use two if you like?
Haven't got a pic of the side mounting to the heads, or some measurements?

It's not 1600TP?

Definitely not a T1. Looks like a 914, check the 914 pics @ http://www.tunacan.net/t4/tour/pics/heads

Its a idf manafold for a type 4, 914. The heads on these cars had 3 bolts (and bigger valves) and the type 4 bus's had 4 bolts. Its also a good way to tell if you have got the big valve heads.

A 914 engine is a VW type 4 Engine... one in the same thing.

Hi

The 914 engine is the same as a Kombi but for a few details, the spark plug location, 3 studs on manifold, valve size etc, the bottom end is the same.
