Engine Tin, Right-Side Cylinder Cooling – VW Bus Type 2 (1972-1979) 2.0L Type 4, Sold Each
These all-new engine tin for Type-4 engines delivers factory-fresh fitment and superior protection, shielding your cylinder head cooling fins from debris to maintain peak operating temperatures. No longer available (NLA) for years, these tins eliminate the need for scavenging and refurbishing used parts from junkyards.
Using advanced 3D scanning, the design team created precise SolidWorks CAD models and 3D-printed prototypes, rigorously test-fitted for flawless compatibility. Crafted from 1mm thick stamped sheet steel with a durable semi-gloss black finish, each tin includes pre-installed M6 x 1.0 welded nuts for easy, secure mounting.
Compatible Vehicles
Based on the product description and the use of the Volkswagen Type 4 engine family, this right-side cylinder cooling engine tin (SKU: VWC-021-119-299) is designed primarily for the VW Bus Type 2 with 2.0L Type 4 engines. However, as it's engineered for Type 4 engines overall and includes compatibility with performance modifications like Super Vee cylinder heads (often used on Porsche models), it fits or can fit with small modifications (e.g., minor trimming or aperture adjustments) on the following vehicles. I've grouped them by make for clarity.
Volkswagen
- 411: 1968-1972 (all models with 1.7L Type 4 engine)
- 412: 1972-1974 (all models with 1.7L or 1.8L Type 4 engine)
- Type 2 Bus (T2 Bay Window): 1972-1979 (all models with Type 4 engines: 1.7L for 1972-1973, 1.8L for 1974-1975, 2.0L for 1976-1979; primary fit as per description)
- Type 2 Bus (T3 Vanagon): 1980-1983 (air-cooled models with 2.0L Type 4 engine; may require small modifications for mounting due to body differences)
Porsche
- 914 (914/4 models): 1970-1976 (1.7L, 1.8L, or 2.0L Type 4 engine variants; compatible with Super Vee heads as noted.
- 912E: 1976 (2.0L Type 4 engine; Similar to 914 compatibility, it may need minor adjustments for rear-engine setup.
Note: Compatibility assumes standard Type 4 engine configurations. For modified engines or non-US spec models, verify fitment. Displacements vary, but the tin design accommodates the core Type 4 architecture.
