Gerald Klaus: From German Roots to High-Performance Innovation
Born in Germany and raised in the world of Volkswagens, Gerald Klaus grew up under the influence of his father, Rolf Klaus—a respected VW performance builder and parts manufacturer. With a split-window Beetle in the garage and a legacy of tuning engines for German enthusiasts, Gerald's path was set early.
Armed with a degree in metallurgy and hands-on experience in industrial foundries, Gerald combined his technical expertise with his lifelong passion for Volkswagens to take on an ambitious challenge: designing and manufacturing his own performance cylinder heads. In this episode, we dive deep into the world of Type 4 performance, exploring the science behind metallurgy, cooling, and airflow—and how Gerald's innovative designs address the shortcomings of traditional heads.
Whether you're a hardcore VW builder or just love stories of passion meeting engineering, this episode is packed with insights into what makes a great performance head—and the dedication it takes to create one from scratch.
