I have these if you need them. You will also find that the gasket set probably won't include the right oil cooler seals either, if your type engine is a late one (70-3) with the dual oil control valves in the case. I have a FAQ on choosing the right gasket if you're not absolutely certain about what goes in there. -- Jim Adney jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, WI 53711-3054 USA ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org
