I was wondering if that thing was going to pop up here. drooley.gif

I want a fan shroud like that for a Type-IV so I can put it into my Beetle. The Type-1 shroud can work for my app but it's definately not as cool as the early Carrera shroud.

Cool, two 4 cammers for sale at once. Ideal for his and hers matched pair. And here I thought these were never for sale; only by trading. What will we see next? 908 & 917 engines for sale?

Aint never put a wrench on one of them but I've heard they are the most complicated, difficult to build, tempermental engines known to man.
Still cool tho.

Not that bad, actually. 80 hours to build one at the factory. You have to be meticulous and hava an enormous amount of patience. I never did a bottom end, but I've done a couple of top end overhauls. I still have the books ................. The Cap'n

If Jake does do a fan shroud for the 914 then it should look like this one. Then the 550 spyder guys could use it too.
