A few points. "Twin single carbs" are not a single-carb setup, they are a dual-carb setup. Two carbs, in this case, really are better than one! VW put single carbs on a whole ton of Bugs. But those are Type I motors, and they have heat risers to warm up the carb so the thing doesn't run like crap. No heat risers on the 914, so a single center-mounted carb will almost always run like crap. Finally, it is rather unlikely that I will be able to make it to the WCC. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/sad.gif) Lack of financing, if I don't get a new job soon, or lack of time, if I do. And that's assuming I can even fast-talk Howard into taking my entry way late... My comment applied almost exclusively to the DFAV 32/36 (I think the designation is) "Pinto Weber Progressive" carb, which has two barrels but is one carb that sits over the middle of the engine. Might work on a Bug, but as far as your 914 goes, it's a paperweight. --DD |
