Unfortunately, the required intake manifold is not included in the so
called kit. The intake port configuration of a Type 4 head is not close
enough to a waterboxer head for the same kit to fit both if the manifold
is part of the kit. There is not waterboxer manifold available from the
aftermarket, AFAIK. The Type 4 aircooled manifold is available.
