Fitment & Compatibility

Fits VW Beetle 1961-1977, Super Beetle 1971-1979, Karmann Ghia 1961-1974, Type 3 1962-1973, Thing 1973-1974 and Type 2 1961-1971 with the upright 1200-1600cc engine. It does not fit the 1700, 1800 or 2000cc Type 4 engines used in later buses. Measure the case and crank before ordering, as a previously machined engine will need an oversize set. With more than 20 years in air-cooled Volkswagen and Porsche parts, PMB Performance can talk through the options with you before you order.
