The system you have is the late, 72-3 system. Your 71 originally came with the earlier system which had a separate muffler, damper, and tailpipe. The 2 systems are interchangable as long as you exchange all 3 early parts for all 2 late parts. Don't do this unless your muffler is shot, however, because you will have to destroy the muffler to remove it from the small upper heat exchangers, which you will need to re-use with your new system. -- Jim Adney jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, WI 53711-3054 USA ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org
