I think the typical 1500S would have been a dual carb 1500 with domed (high compression) pistons, although there was a low compression option for the 1500S. While I admire your goal here, you might want to consider your options to the high compression so that you can actually drive it on today's gas. - ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ------------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe? mailto:type3-request@vwtype3.org, Subject: unsubscribe
