When the longer-stroke engines (1300-up) came out the tins were extended accordingly.
As a set the lower tins for pre-heat are unique to the '67, though IIRC the left nipple was common with earlier versions. |

| I have a 67 bug and pre-heat tins and hardware for both sides. I heard there is a difference in the size of the tins , is this so and what is the correct dimensions for the 67 ones? Like did the 1200 have a different size than the 67 1500? The one photo I saw on Samba shows a one inch difference in the length of the tins. Which is which? thanks. |
Ghettoman, Are you asking about the tins that wrap around the heat riser tube to the intake manifold? I can get you a measurement on the width of those tins screw hole to screw hole and where the riser tube is located.
But sadly I misplaced the tins that go behind the heat riser and the cylinder tins.
