Re: [T3] Strange OEM Type 3 Muffler

Indeed it was; 1500cc engine production is a couple of hundred thousand
ahead of Type 3 chassis in Aug 64 - July 65, and my curiosity over this was
answered by a Type 2 guy who has the Type 2 Parts book, which gives details
of the engine numbers of these engines - but I haven't seen the book for
myself and don't know the cooling arrangements used.  Neither do I know the
spec. of engine used since the serial number itself is the same series for
the whole range.  However, I can't see the cooling arrangements remaining as
Type3 as there isn't the ducting for cooling air in a bus.

I suppose we come back to the question of what makes a Type 3 engine
(anything other than vehicle used in, I wonder?).
