JBugs - 2 Tip GT VW Beetle & Ghia Exhaust Installation

[@SLOW_N_LOW_63BUG]

Love the new video! I’m currently in the middle of my 12 volt conversion on my 63’. Bought most of my parts from J Bugs. Currently working on mine, hands greasy! Thanks J Bugs and not sure your name for this video! Inspiration is half the battle! Cheers!

Good deal. I changed my ‘63 bug to 12volt generator. Then to 12v alternator. First 12v headlights then 12v halogen headlights then the halogen H4 conversion. I can see! It’s nothing but great. Do some long distance driving especially coming home late from car shows. 👍

Hope I learned something. I’ve had my ‘63 for 27yrs. A shop put on a “Monza “(their term) exhaust on her about 25 yrs ago. Been thinkin lately about a new exhaust. Thanks👍

[@Sam_Mebane]

Absolutely, as long as your 63 has a 1300 or larger engine, this is an option to consider.

[@daveydad]

Yes on the Zbar! I'll be doing mine in the spring.

[@Sam_Mebane]

I'll see what we can do!

[@jondavis7701]

Just ordered it. Had manifold icing a few weeks ago and posted pictures. I appreciate you guys carrying a better exhaust. 👍

[@Sam_Mebane]

Our pleasure, looks like FedEx dropped it off yesterday, let us know how it works!

[@SLOW_N_LOW_63BUG]

Had to rewind it. Thanks Sam!

[@LondonDubClubtv]

Great video thanks from UK

[@Sam_Mebane]

Thank you!

[@earlforthun3838]

Love your how to videos, and yes a lift is the best way to go

[@Sam_Mebane]

Thank you, and ABSOLUTELY!

[@kevingore3588]

I had 16 vw bugs when I was at home and one that came from Germany I think it was old late 40's early 50's cant remember I love working on the bugs

[@WA-zl6ju]

Any how to videos are good. The 2 year only z bar explanation and rebuild would be welcome.

[@cyprianskiba8768]

What are the jack lift points on the bug?

[@Sam_Mebane]

Ideally under any suspension mounting point. Either the beam and it's supports (or the control arm mounting points for a super) in the front, or the transmission cross brace or rear torsion housing in the rear.

[@tt-rs1457]

The exhaust seems to fit quiete nicely. Remember back in my days, most of the Supersprint, Sauer & Sohn and Abarth exhaust won't perceive that well. Also, sound is good., Tips also...is that all stainless ?

[@Sam_Mebane]

The tips are stainless, the pipes and exhaust are mild steel, painted with a very good high temp paint which still doesn't show any signs of being run.

J.bug..😊

[@Priest1883]

What can I soak the intake in to get out the carbon?

[@Sam_Mebane]

Acetone is a good chemical for cleaning out carbon deposits, and not horribly expensive.

[@Priest1883]

​@@Sam_Mebane ok thanks

[@faustonjosnicamargo4215]

Hello my friend, what is the purpose of the tube in the rear door? I speak from Brazil, sorry for my bad English

[@Sam_Mebane]

If you're referring to earlier videos on this same car, the tube in either quarter panel is a sunroof drain tube.

[@faustonjosnicamargo4215]

​@@Sam_MebaneI found an old video, I discovered it was Blazecut, thanks anyway, friend

[@Sam_Mebane]

@@faustonjosnicamargo4215 ah, yes....rear door, we refer to it as the deck lid! Yes, it is the BlazeCut fire suppression system.

[@faustonjosnicamargo4215]

​@@Sam_Mebane thank you my bro

Muß man wirkliche Oldtimer so vermurksen, teilweise Ersatzteile verbauen, die vom Original 75% entfernt sind, die Nötige Zulassung interessiert nicht überall, wenn der jedoch Motor überhitzt > die Angesaugte Kühlluft wird nicht ordentlich über die Wärmetauscher abgeführt, das die Heizleistung 0 entspricht sieht jeder Käfer kenner😅😅😅 mit den FlexAlurohren mag es 10% besser sein 😮 wenigstens Optisch😢😮😢😮 > viel Gerede ohne Sachkenntnis

[@Sam_Mebane]

Ja, das tue ich und ich rede viel, da ich über jahrzehntelange Erfahrung verfüge. Sie können gerne an Ihren eigenen Autos arbeiten und beliebige Teile verwenden. Sie können auch Videos erstellen und diese teilen, damit jeder Ihr Fachwissen sehen kann. Danke fürs Zuschauen, pass auf dich auf!
