All of the measurements are in these drawings:

The toolnumber is 609
I was not able to bent the tubes, that's why I chose to cut and weld.
The clamp I used is a standard industry part I bought used from eBay. |

Thank you Antoine. Unfortunately I couldn't use it as much as the previous years. Spent most of my vacation time in the US this year. Unfortunately couldn't take the bus with me. |

Today the weather was good for the first time in awhile. The van was due for an oil change. And I had planned to replace the oil pump with one with a filter.
Unfortunately the studs were a bit short, I ended up screwing them out a couple of mm. I think I might replace them the next time I do an oil change.

| Thats a great option vs. a full flow setup as no hoses to deal with. Just have to be sure your exhaust will clear. |

| Yes, I checked that before I bought the pump. The stock OEM Muffler has the preheat tube on the right side, so does the NOS Leistritz which I still have as a replacement. Once I have used them up, I need to make sure to get the right type. I would probably got with some kind of stainless steel replacement. |
