I have a motor that came with yellow tins and I was wanting to put chrome tins on it. Everyone keeps telling me that I have to have the shroud with the fins in it to put the air where it needs to be. Does this make that much of a difference.

the yellow ones must be the best ones.... every kentucky buggy that comes to alabama has them on it.

that chrome crap is over rated

The tins dont really matter they are all about the same. The main thing is making sure you have the deverters under the cylinders. There are two kinds one just goes in between the cylinders and the other one goes all the way across the clylinders. They help circulate the air from the fan around the cylinders instead of just blowing on the ground. I thought pink was your favorite color anyway.

IDK but i'm a believer in CHROME DON'T MAKE YOU HOME!!!!

are you drinking again dave?? chrome is awesome lol thats why i dont have any on my motor

My whole motor is chromed. Its never let me down yet. The only problem i have with it is its hard to keep clean. It gives me a excuse to ckeck things out close while cleaning it. Dirt is the #1 killer of a vw.

Thats what im saying they have that powder that looks chrome and it dont rust

Thats what i mean to hard to clean. the chome dont make you home thing is for a buddy that liked chrome and broke alot

I know what your sayin dave. If it wasnt for the effort of keeping my buggy clean it would prolly fall apart. Im bad rough on my equipment and the chrome on it keeps me busy going over it making sure its ready for some more abuse.

stock.

Nothing better than stock in my opinion. I use a Thing fan shroud and VW cylinder tins and type 4 oil cooler.

I think that is what DVS1 has . i beleive he likes it.

How does this exactly work... i was looking on the website and the pictures are not very clear.

chrome looks sweet but it does hold heat kustom 1 sells the lower deflectors which are a must they also sell the lower super cool tins but ive heard the deflector work better
