Hey guys, I'm getting ready to put a 2332 in my 64 beetle. It has 48 IDA's with the tall intakes. The more I look and measure the more I'm starting to think its not going to fit. Whats my best option here? Will the tall intakes fit but are just really tight? Or do I need to get some short intakes? Gene Berg sells a set that are 4 3/8 tall, are there any others that'll work? Does anyone have a pair they'd like to sell?

I haven't had any luck finding the skat traks. The berg manifolds I found seem to be quite a bit shorter than the ones I have, I was hoping someone had some experience with them. Madmike, why don't you just send me the set you have to "borrow".  |

I've heard of some people milling the manifolds so they tilt in towards the fan shroud.

I know Mike, I was just giving you a hard time.... Talked to someone at Gene Berg today and they got me hooked up with a set of short manifolds, so as of right now I think I got it figured out....I think....

Got my manifolds this weekend. The ports are way different, I'm going to have to remove a lot of material. This is my first time and its gonna be a nerve racking.
