From the feels point of view, the old ones seems to seat pretty firmly on both sides while the new one seems to float and shift in place when handled. If it were'nt for the lost elasticity and thinned out flange, I would've reused the old ones. I am, going to Bill & Steve's for a visual on what they got. the fellow on the phone told me they have 4 different ones!! > will let you know. There is the late one that you need. This one was also used in beetles and type 4s. It sounds like this is what you need and what you have. OE ones wer black, but all the replacements i've ever seen were red. The mid one is a lot like the late one, but has a smaller hole and is thicker. These are always black. The adapter one that was never used in production but is used to adapt an early case to a late cooler, etc. These are always green There might also be a very early one used in type 3s that had a right angle adapter with a beetle cooler. This one might be the same as a 40 HP beetle. I've never seen one of these setups. This one probably does NOT have the center flange that the other three have. - ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ------------------------------------------------ To unsubscribe, E-mail to: <type3-off@vwtype3.org> For more help, see http://vwtype3.org/list/
