Doghouse Oil Cooler Tin Hoover Bit
00-8961-0
Fan Shroud Sealing Tin, Doghouse Shroud to Oil Cooler AKA Hoover Bit
EMPI has redesigned this critical piece of engine tin using CAD with a wider lip creating an improved seal. Frequently overlooked and omitted during engine builds; the Hoover Bit must be bolted directly to the rear of the doghouse oil cooler. A missing Hoover Bit results in a less effective cooling system, leading to poor performance.
Please note that modifications may be required when installing aftermarket engine tin.
One Piece design, improved seal.
20 gauge sheet metal.
Satin black paint.
OE Ref 113-117-321
The EMPI Hoover Bit fits:
71-77 Beetle
71-79 Super Beetle
71-74 Karmann Ghia
71 Type 2 Bus
