Hey, just after some info from an informed lot, can anyone tell me what model the twin preheat manifold comes off, is there only 1 type? Thanks in advance

Actually has anyone had a twin preheat manifold on anything but a 1600 is more the info that I need.

From memory the 1974 1300 beetle

Nope later than that, 1976 I think.

did they have them on both 1600 and 1300?

Yes both 1300 and 1600, I had a '74 1300 with one, still have the manifold here.

talking about twin hot spot manifolds
they have 2 sets of preheates
very bottom one in this pic
and just for the record they were only fitted to 76 bugs and a handfull of the last 1300 bugs in aus
anything else that had them b4 that isnt original

Whats the red manifold off?

I havent thought about hot dogs since the 70's

These dual preheat intake manifolds were fitted from 1974 on (1300, L and the '76 models).
