Subject:1981 Vanagon Exhaust
From:Patrick Harris
Date:Tue, 9 Jan 2001 22:10:04 -0800

Greetings,

I'm searching for a few parts for the exhaust of my 81 Vanagon.  It's a
non-CAL., catalyst van.  I hope I can explain this well.  I need the
180-degree "U" fitting that turns from the collector rail to the catalytic
converter and muffler.

Have I confused everyone yet?  :)

It has rusted out and needs replaced.  Every parts supplier I go to doesn't
list it as a part available.  Every junk yard I go to, the Vanagon I want to
rip it off, either is rusted as well, or is missing because someone else
needed it too.

What I need is either a place to purchase it, or a part number.  Actually,
if I could get a part number or even a technical name for it, at least it's
better than what I have.

Or is it time to put after market exhaust on?  Any suggestions?  Washington
State doesn't have strict DEQ laws.... :)

Any ideas would help!!  Thanks!!
