    Air cooled attendance at shows?

    When I first started going to shows aircooled vw's were cheap and for me and most people our only vehicle. Nowadays that's the job of the water cooled so it's only natural what's happening.

    Blanking holes left by J tubes

    I see you have a 72 so the scat tin wouldn't fit. whatever you do make sure it's properly sealed so no hot air from the exhaust get back into the engine bay.

    Blanking holes left by J tubes
