The 1950–1979 1200–1600cc Billet Oil Sump Cover Plate, manufactured by Parts by MST LLC, is precision-engineered to replace your stock stamped-steel plate with a stronger, sleeker, and leak-resistant solution. Whether you're cruising your classic Beetle, restoring a Bus, or building a performance-powered Ghia, this billet aluminum cover plate delivers the durability and style your engine bay deserves. Made to fit all Volkswagen Type 1 engines from 1200cc to 1600cc across decades of air-cooled engineering, this component is more than just a cover—it’s your engine’s first line of defense against oil leaks, stripped studs, and messy maintenance. Why It Matters The original Volkswagen oil sump plate (OEM Part #: 113-115-181) was built for simplicity, not longevity. Thin stamped steel is prone to warping, corrosion, and stripped threads—especially after repeated maintenance. The MST billet upgrade changes the game: CNC-machined from high-grade billet aluminum Flat, warp-resistant sealing surface for consistent gasket sealing Integrated drain plug for cleaner, tool-free oil changes Precision-engineered for all 1200cc–1600cc Type 1 VW engines Product Details Fits: 1950–1979 Air-Cooled Volkswagen Engines (1200cc–1600cc) Compatible Models: Beetle, Karmann Ghia, Bus, Type 3 (with Type 1 engine) Material: CNC-machined billet aluminum OEM Reference: Volkswagen #113-115-181 Manufacturer: Parts by MST LLC Why Upgrade to Billet? Stamped-steel plates bend easily, causing uneven sealing and oil leaks over time. This billet oil sump cover resists warping, offers a much longer service life, and includes a secure drain plug to simplify maintenance—no more pulling the entire plate just to change oil. That’s smarter, cleaner, and more reliable performance beneath your VW. Make Every Drop Count Protect your oil, preserve your engine, and upgrade your undercarriage with a component that performs as good as it looks. Whether you’re daily driving or hitting the vintage car show circuit, the MST Billet Oil Sump Cover Plate is a no-brainer upgrade for any serious air-cooled Volkswagen owner.
