EMPI Super Shroud Early 36 HP Style Fan Shroud for VW Type 1, Black

Stock style shrouds tend to send more air to cylinders 1 and 2 than to 3 and 4, so one side of the engine runs hotter. The EMPI Super Shroud was developed with CFD modeling and flow bench testing to balance that airflow and move more air overall, while keeping the clean look of an early 36 hp style shroud in semi-gloss black.

Technical Details

• Style: early 36 hp look, non-doghouse, no heater outlets
• Finish: semi-gloss black paint
• Fan: stock 28-30 mm or thicker 37 mm
• Inlet: velocity stack, modeled on the Porsche 356 shroud
• Tested airflow: 14% more cooling air than an OE style shroud with 30 mm fan, 37% more with 37 mm fan
• Fin tips: extended to replicate the thermostat vanes in the open position

Fitment & Compatibility

For 1300-1600cc VW Type 1 engines with an upright oil cooler. It was shaped from 3D scans of OEM and bubbletop cases to seal against the engine tin, and has horizontally aligned alternator bolt holes. Some cases need small trims or bends around the case stud and lower ridges, and EMPI's install tips include a cut template for the 00-9203-0 remote oil cooler adapter. Check your fan shimming before fitting. If you are unsure which version suits your build, contact PMB Performance. We have spent over 20 years working through air-cooled fitment questions like this one.
