Do I have to install all the typical changes after 01.10.52 like in an beetle engine? That means "no" K-Manifold, "no" star coil, "no" 26 VFIS carburator, "no" flat 8 mm fuel pump? Or did VW changed this stuff in the bus production later? Normally after 01.10.52 (beetle) I would need a normal star coil, normal manifold, 28 PCI carburator, a flat 6 mm fuel pump. What do you think?
