Kostamojen Posted August 4, 2004 Share Posted August 4, 2004 Just a thought... I dont think they would fit, but hey, its an idea... Dual 32/36 DGV's... probably too much carb, but it would be neat... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone can correct me - but I think Solo2soob has dual DCOE's on the customized manifold he made - that as most dual-weber as I think you'll find around here. - Erik - Tacoma, WA - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PHATBRAT Posted August 4, 2004 Share Posted August 4, 2004 That was my plan for my dual carb manifold on my BRAT with dual webers. (Of course, the engine would be worked a bit, but I posed the same question a few years ago and was told that it was too much for an EA81. I beg to differ. I believe it can be done (With proper jetting). Boz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bajavwnsoobnut Posted August 4, 2004 Share Posted August 4, 2004 Well I remember BratsRus (Jerry) having bought a pair of 40mm single barrel Kadrons from me to try to make a dual carb setup. So....... JERRY!!!! ya might want to chime in on this lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeneralDisorder Posted August 4, 2004 Share Posted August 4, 2004 Get a Tig welder and a die grinder and mae yourself some dual port heads. That's what RAM does..... GD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
All_talk Posted August 4, 2004 Share Posted August 4, 2004 Take a look at what the VeeWee guys have been doing for decades with flat four carbs. Similar engine sizes so the same carbs should work with a little re-jetting, spread bore 40, 45 and 48mm Dells and Webers for duel ports and the 40mm Solexs (“Kadrons”) for the singles. Manifolds are the only issue, but aluminum welds, cuts and files pretty easy. Here are some links to good VW info: Basic run down of vw carb options: http://www.aircooled.net/gnrlsite/resource/articles/carbs101.htm Weber stuff: http://www.scatenterprises.com/weberperformancecarbkits.html Some pricing on this kinda stuff: http://www.socalautoparts.com/HotVWs_Ad/HotVWs_Ad_p12.html Gary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WJM Posted August 4, 2004 Share Posted August 4, 2004 Im tempted to take a MPFI engine, big delta cams with an NA spyder intake and use a rather LARGE sidedraft on it....dual exhaust and light flywheel and such....RX trans....in a gutted RX shell.

Caboobaroo Posted August 4, 2004 Share Posted August 4, 2004 you can also look for the sought after dual carb setup for an EA71...I just happen to know where one is and HOPEFULLY *crosses fingers* I can get it for a good price....You know who you are that has it:brow: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea-thats what i'm doin' with the EJ22 engine--weld up the injector ports & cut out the center of the manifold--weld in a rectangular "box"(block of 6061 T6 cut in half-milled out inside) & use a dual set of 40mm Dellortos--it turns out that the EJ22 has a slot in the passenger cam for a "dizy"--So the engine will be almost electronic-less other than basic spark control--just the way I want it-- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WJM Posted August 5, 2004 Share Posted August 5, 2004 over seas in the as-not-as-fortunate-as-USA countries....they DO have carbs and Dizzys on the EJs.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
