Re: 1600 - 1641 carbs
the carb/s you have already will do the job - may have to up the mixture or possibly re-jet though.....

Re: 1600 - 1641 carbs
thats a true 64000000 dollar question!
Some have/like twin singles (like me)
Some have/like twin doubles (effectively a carb for each cylinder)
There are a few questions you need to answer that should help you decide on what to get....
1. do you want performance over economy
2. are you fussed about lumpy tickover/touchy starting when cold (choke/no choke setup)
3. how much are you looking at spending for the setup
4. Do you have a preference of manufacturer already?
Weber ICT 34's seem to be VERY popular however that is not nessisarily down to them being very good - the are an OK carb that is quite cheap and returns good MPG/performance
Dellorto's are also sought after but are at the other end of the spectrum as they are seen as a high quality carb
It''s worth having a rummage around on somewhere like VZI as they all seem to have hard on's for twin carb setup's on there
so there is a load of info on preference/setup/tuning/selling and general chat about them on beetles/splits/bays and the odd T25/T3 too
