I found used heat exchangers at Malahat Auto on Vancouver Island, B.C. Canada
for $125 each in the fall. Good deal considering $599 was the average for new
ones(each).

I used the Dansk heat exchangers on both my 1976's ( one set supplied by
VW during that wonderful and mysterious free "heat exchanger evaluation"
thing about 5 years ago).

Anyway... they worked great, and I have no qualms about the quality,
which appeared at least as good as the originals.=

I've noticed that my heat exchangers haved rusted through and
its time for new ones. I have heard that NOS is better than
the Danish OEM is this true? Anyone experimented with high
temperature coatings on these? If I buy rust free used ones
is there anything I should watch for? I am running air cooled
federal setup with no cat (stock in Canada) 071-256-091B &
071-256-092B.

Thanks,
Chris
