Dual carbs on a 1300 6v 67 bug
After a little more grunt and a cleaner , new look for the 67 engine bay and am unsure of the best carbs to go for. Not worried about fuel economy ,
aslong as they are easy to look after and tune. Will be running extractors , bosch blue coil , new dizzy etc. What's good and available? Will fit
myself.
Any helps good!

Is your engine single port or twin port?
Not sure that it would gain that much from it unless it is the twin port. If it is single port, probably better to look at increasing capacity to
1641.
Basically there are kadron and weber carbs with a lot of debate over which are better.
Single port manifolds aren't all that common.
Second hand you can get a good set of carbs for $300+ i think.
Generally you need a 009 dizzy.
