Hi
I'm 100% sure, I was working in VW dealers at the time, I'm old.
The GA, GB & GC motor was from a 914 Porsche, not a bay.

Hi,
My 1975 Double Cab has a CJ 2.0 motor, the original. It might be different for Double Cabs, possibly.
The Haynes (US) manual says "... introduced in August 1975, the [2.0] engine ..."
