Installation Notes

Compatible With 1966-1979 Volkswagen Beetle, N/A. Verify port alignment, flange style, and exhaust routing before installation. This header does not include an oxygen sensor port, so confirm your vehicle setup does not require one. The included gasket or seal should be matched to the rest of the exhaust system for proper sealing. Part number B2-0311-S should be checked against the existing manifold and collector configuration before final assembly.
