Does anyone know if the thermostatically-controlled, cooling vanes from an older non-doghouse fan shroud will fit a newer doghouse fan shroud? Thanks! David
Cooling vanes in fan shroud

The older style "dog house" used a cooling ring 1964 down (USA versions) but the fins from a late model will fit the mid 1964 and up

Thanks! My 1969 VW is a standard Type 1 which didn't have the doghouse but I have a new 1600 DP engine and the fan shroud that replaced the original did not have the vanes so I'm reinstalling them as I drive on the interstate a lot in the summer. David
