{"product_id":"1971-1974-dual-port-engine-front-cover-plate-paintable-1600cc","title":"1971-1974 VW Front Engine Tin - Late Doghouse Style - Black","description":"\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eEvery air-cooled VW engine lives or dies by how well it manages airflow, and the front engine tin is one of those small pieces that quietly does a big job. Sitting between the engine and transmission on 1971-1974 dual port 1600cc engines with the late style doghouse oil cooler tin, this plate closes off the front of the engine compartment so your cooling system pulls fresh air through the shroud instead of recycling hot air and road grime from underneath the car. Leave it off or run a bent, rusted one and you’re giving heat an easy path back to the heads and oil cooler, which is exactly where you don’t want it. This is a direct replacement, so it bolts right in without any fabrication or guesswork.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits 1971-1974 Standard Beetles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits 1971-1974 Super Beetles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits 1971-1974 Karmann Ghias\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits 1973-1974 Things\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFor 1600cc dual port engines with late doghouse oil cooler tin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInstalls between engine and transmission to seal the engine compartment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHelps maintain proper cooling airflow and keeps hot air from recirculating\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDirect replacement for VW number 113-119-517S\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eArrives finished in black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"EMPI Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68307278069972,"sku":"378936","price":44.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0821\/1002\/1844\/files\/378936-_1.webp?v=1793906183","url":"https:\/\/mamotorworks.com\/products\/1971-1974-dual-port-engine-front-cover-plate-paintable-1600cc","provider":"Mid America Motorworks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
