(I may have that >reversed, you know what I mean!) For intake manifold to head gaskets, single port heads all used the little copper-covered rings, dual port beetles used the pressed metal gaskets, dual port carbed Type 3s used a paper gasket and dual port FI Type 3s use a paper/bakelite/paper sandwich. I think both Types used a paper/bakelite/paper insulator between the manifolds and the carbs. - ----------------------------------------------- Jim Adney Madison, WI 53711 USA ----------------------------------------------- |
