colonel mustard,

As stated in original post, it's for a twinport Beetle engine, 1300 or 1600 will be the same. Mine's a 1300 tp but it's in a '61 model so, year model is pretty irrelevant.

Matt

there are a few different types of the hot air pipe
depending on what engine tin ware you have fitted

Matt Ryan · 28 Sep 2009, 8:40 am

Dave,

Will be fitted with stock 1300/1600 twinport rear tin, with single heat risers.

Single or twin heat risers was the only difference in late (twinport) rear tin as far as I know.

Regards,

Matt.

all the 12volt bug ones are the same overall just minor cosmetic differences

from memory upright kombi engines had the same animal too

Hi
You can usually pick them up for $5 at swap meets....

Most beetles no longer have them..
but still have the 50mm hole letting hot air into the engine compartment which is a no no...
