Air scoops for webers
Does anyone know of someone who makes or has air scoops for webers in a bug? I'm sick of getting hot air in the carbies.

You shouldn't be getting hot air in the carbies if your engine bay seal is in good condition and all the tinware is in place.
If it is an early Beetle you can graft some vents from a late model engine lid so more cool air can get in.

Buy at Set of HOODJAX from Vintage VW or Stan Pobjoy. Allows you to have the top of your engine lid open to let hot air escape. Can be closed in 30
seconds for parking or wet weather etc. Great also for higher freeway cruising or hot day city driving
