Engine in/out with dual carbs fitted
Just done a top end rebuild on a 1500 going into a 1970 bug and I got a set of dual ICT 34 for it. I did a dummy set up last night and it looks to me
that I have to have the carbs and manifolds off when I put the engine back in.
Is this the case or can you giggle and wiggle and get it all in.

Hi
The carbs & manifolds need to be off when you fit the motor.
