try some of your local engineering firms but will probably be costly, what are you trying to do?

Trying to put a square plate carby onto a standard 1600 beetle manifold. The carby has two buttiflies that open in stages mechanically.

The standard carby is stuffed so instead of the same a again a mate had this one and was hoping to get out of it cheap!!

Any suggestions:duh

sounds like a progressive weber or something similar

would be easier cheaper and better to buy the correct manifold

any markings on the carb

Do a search under the name Barls

he is selling a bug with a prog on it. Is it the same?? The one he has is actually a lada Niva copy of a DFAV Weber 32/36
