this is just flat WRONG and could cost someone a LOT of money and time by following this 'advice'!!!! if you don't KNOW, don't 'advise' such nonsense!! the 1980-1983 aircooled buses had pushrob tubes that can be easily removed and replaced by simply removing the valve covers and the rocker arm assemblies! you do NOT have to remove the head!!
