Hello All,
I have a stock 1962 1200 Beetle and I would like to add a bit more grunt without going down the whole new engine route.
The only mods done so far is the 6 to 12volt convertion and a 009 dizzy
Mick Motors is selling Econo Extractors of 1200cc for around $130.
I am also looking at updating the carb to a Pict 31.
Would it be possible to upgrading the 009 to an electronic system?
Are their any other Cheap mods possible?
Will any of this make a difference, or will I be throwing away my money and just save money for a decent 1776cc and a gearbox out of a 1500.
Thanks for that
Would it be possible to install another 28pict carb to make my engine twin carb. If so, are there any single port kits (ie manifolds, linkages, etc) which can be purchased or manufactured?
it would be cheaper to make a larger cube engine to bolt in than to make yours go harder as the manifolds, linkages etc to tune yours would cost lots to buy or make.
1200's dont like to go hard either 😵💫 (that should wake some up)
