Im curious how the got such a long protrusion out of the > stamping though. I took a fresh look at mine tonight and it is welded in, but it is welded into a "socket" that is part of the stamping. I don't see any way for it to have been "misplaced." At this point, my best guess is that someone at Walker in the early years of type 3 muffler production thought it would be a good marketing move the make Walker mufflers just a tiny bit different from everyone else's. This should make the customer come back to Walker for their replacements. I suspect that Walker rather quickly discovered that the ill will this generated greatly outweighed the sales it forced. - ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ------------------------------------------------------------------- List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list or mailto:help@vwtype3.org
