it depends on the year of them
im running early 70s ones on my 1600 beetle with 140 air corrections and x127.5 mains which i drilled out to x130

if u need any help ive got one of those gregories manuals, some had differnt left and right main jet sizes in the mid 60s

No idea on the year. Didn't noticed it stamped anywhere but I've got x130 and 150 air corrections. I've matched them which is a start. I might take you up on the Greg's offer if I can't get one myself, I've got 2 type 3's, the one I'm tuning now is a seller.
Cheers.

Could you post some pics?

especially how you linkaged it up and how they fit inside the beetle engine bay.
