I'm looking for some info: The two pieces of tin that cover the push rod tubes is what i'm looking for. This is what i'm running on my bus for heater boxes (living in FL don't need the heater). I'm looking for what type of tin i'm missing, is it 411/12 or early bus tin? I'm going to be picking up some (hopefully) later this evening and would like to verify it before I pay for it. Thanks in advance. This is out of a Bus but i'm not 100% sure the heater boxes aren't from a 411/12

Sorry I did not get to this yesterday. It looks pretty 411/412-ish.

Assuming you have the fan shroud and all of the top tin......at a glance you are missing four pieces. Tbe two forward vertical tin pieces that screw to the top two large cylinder covers....and the two large flat pieces that are typically called "sled tins". I will post the schematic in the am. Ray

Yeah the only ones I'm missing are the "sled" tin I've only ever seen two or three 411/12's in person. Not sure where I managed to obtain the heater boxes.

I will have to check part #'s...but they should be pretty much the same as 1.7L bus. Ray

I have the “sled tins”. Not sure about the others. I’ll check my “stock” in the morning. You’re welcome to them gratis. Let me know.
