Re: 68 Fastback
I looked at going that route, but the combustion exhaust would have been pointing towards the inside of the vehicle, a bn1 bug type would have worked better but they are even harder to find and have a fairly crude control system compared with the bus bn4. This side project has taken ages to sort, so...

Re: help choosing a floorpan gasket
Just a quick update on this,

I had problems with poor air filters on some idf's and the pilots got blocked almost every day on my commute, very frustrating ,juddering hesitation etc. Only cured by removing jets and blowing them out with compressed air.
