VW Basic Engine Chrome Kit - Select Options

Upright or Doghouse Fan Shroud

Look at the back of your fan shroud, does it dis-connect from the oil cooler or does the shroud cover the oil cooler? Air cooled VW's through 1970 originally featured the "upright-style" oil cooler that blew cool air from the back of fan shroud through the oil cooler fins next to the shroud. Cars after 1971 originally had a redesigned "doghouse-style" fan shroud and oil cooler that were more effective than the upright oil cooler to help cool a bigger 1600cc engine. JBugs recommends you check what configuration your vehicle is currently running before you order as it may NOT be original after 30-40 years.

With or Without Heater Box

Planning on running your stock heater boxes? Or perhaps you bypassed the heat with jtubes and want engine trim witout the heat ducts. Whatever your configuration be sure to select "with heat" or "without heat" from the drop-down menu above.

WITH HEAT - This option includes the ducts on the front of tha fan shrouds and rear engine tin, allowing you connect your fan to your heater boxes with fresh air hoses.

WITHOUT HEAT - This option features closed fan shrouds and rear engine tin. Perfect for hiding components beneath your engine bay and eliminating the need to plug your fan shroud.

With or Without Heat Riser Cutouts

Heat Risers are tubes that start at the muffler or header and connect up to the manifold underneath the carburetor. They utilize the heat from exhaust air to keep the moisture absorbed in the air/fuel mixture from freezing. The heat also helps keep the air/fuel mixture vaporized as it moves through the manifold down its path to the heads.

Dual Carbs do not require heat risers as they lead directly to the heads, no long winding manifold. Also, some aftermarket exhaust do not run heat risers because they do not expel exhaust gas the same way original German mufflers did. Heat Risers should have an inlet and an outlet, but this cycle is interrupted by modern exhaust systems designs that do not create the vacuum necessary to circulate the air flow.

Single Port or Dual Port Cylinder Shrouds

Cylinder Shrouds keep the heat from your heads out on your intake and engine bay. Please note if you need Single Port or Dual Port, depending on your engine configuration.
