Does anyone run a Progressive 32-36 single carb system. It just seems it would be a lot easier to keep tuned. I have a 1.7 without F.I. Any suggestions are appreciated.

I ran one for years on my 914 with the 1.7 engine in it. Just ran like a top. When I worked (occasionally) at a VW repair shop that specialized in Type IV's most of the installations were on the later 2 liter engines and (I feel that) the carbs performed TERRIBLY ! ! ! The Type IV engine is different from the one on the 914, but it was more the carb than the engine. Maybe good for the smaller engine, although it NEEDS EXTENSIVE TUNING, lousy on the larger one.

Luck,

TC

There's a complete set-up on ebay right now for short money, maybe grab it and play around a little . . .
