I putting a mexican type 1 motor into my notch and I have some tinware and distributor questions. I got a '72 engine as a donor for externals but it had this style tinware(pic) under the RH cylinder and the normal deflector plate under the LH side. Which is the best to use as I don't want to pull the heads to change the deflector plates usless I have to ?



I want to use a SVDA distributor(113 905 205 Z) from a SBug but am worried about the timing on the #3 cylinder, I have a 1600 TL distributor (113 905 205 T) but the cam is baddly worn to the point of being usless.
Will I get overheat problems on #3 with the Z distriburor?

it should have the later deflector plates you have in the pic on both sides

you need to change them and have to pull the heads

I've pulled the heads and changed the tin(hmm never seen dished pistons in a vw before, I wonder what the C.R is on these?). Yes my donor motor had odd tin under the cylinders, but I got a matching piece. It took a bit of tweeking to get them to fit the 8mm head studs. Now I just have to drill for the studs and hole on the dipstick/filler tube.
I' ve got a 009 in my collection along with a scat(mallory)
