In the latter part of 2012, while I was painting my 1965 bug, I installed a dual 30 PICT Solex carbs from the scratch with the vintage speed theme in mind. I hope this topic fits on this forum. Thanks.

The donor parts: two 1200 K manifolds and two 30 PICT carbs plus the Borg Warner NOS Linkage I bought.

I bought a tubing for the balances and had it bended to mimic the Okrasa style.

But in the process, I installed an oil filter from later model accessories here since I haven’t found a Fram for the application. Though it works.

Thanks so much. I was a labor of love and driving it now really feels awesome.And the dual 28 solex conversion really gives an extra kick to the 1200 engine. Thanks!

Hey Dong- clever work! Did you use the straight section of the original intake manifold pipe (between the left down-turn for the head, and the left edge of the aluminum heat riser casting) for your "down" section of the new manifold? With the new manifolds' outward tilting, did you happen to check if they would fit an engine with the fresh air fan shroud outlets? Looks like they could.

So how does the engine run with the two carbs? Is the engine still a 1200 40hp, or did you install the big-bore cylinders? Did you need to change the jets in the carbs at all?

Thanks!

I used the two old k-manifolds and the long straight part of the manifold was used. In fact that long part of the manifold was the one that joined the end casting for heads and carbs. I was not able to check if it can fit the fan shroud with fresh air. But if that fan shroud would have been used, I guess I would have made some adjustments on the angle of the manifolds in order for the carbs to fit well. But I guess it willfit.

At first the engine was running quite rich but when we replaced the jetings and installed the Bosch 009, it was running better now. And I can truly say that the engine was given some extra ponies in the process!

Absolutely, it was a 1200cc engine with 40 hp.

Thanks,

Dong

thanks so much buddy. This vintage speed theme is my favorite. I guess if you've been into.the vw scene for so long a time you will outgrown the hunger of bigger engines and would opt to venture on the vintage performance side. That has happened to me. And i next project is a 1959 convertible beetle with the vintage sped theme in mind again. Thanks for the wonderful comments!

This motor is going in my formula vee .i did have a pepco super charger on my 40 hp motor. but I am putting the super charger on a other motor thanks for getting me fired up on making the linkage for my 40 hp vee motor and it only cost me $75.00 for all the parts and a good friend gave me the intake manifolds will post pictures today take care buddy spencerfvee

Two weeks ago, I found these two NOS Fram filters, which I will install on my 65 ragtop vintage speed and resto-custon 1967 bus. http://www.thesamba.com/vw/forum/viewtopic.php?t=539202&highlight=

Then just today, I went at the store and they found ather two Fram filters. And you won't believe! Both are still sealed and I was the one who broke the seals just to check the contents. The other one is still sealed!

Now I have four NOS Fram Filters. I will install one of these on my 1965 ragtop!

I will install the other one on my forthcoming 1959 'vert project!

Thanks buddy! The Country buggy is hibernating!

I recently installed a NOS Fram Oil Filters. I have 3 more extra NOS fram oil filters!

Doing the inventory of the needed parts and checking the Fram. It's really cool installing this NOS fram. I was thinking whether to install it, it is a good thing I have three more extra NOS Fram. So installing this fresh from bhe box NOS Fram and letting it go was easy!

Image may have been reduced in size. Click image to view fullscreen.

Installed one! I looks really classic. Now my vintage theme 1965 bug is getting into share.

WHo knows, next time, I can stumble a NOS Oksara somewhere along the way! ..... wishful thinking I guess!

With all those lines and coils on the engine, you'd think you have a small distillery going! Shocked

The FRAM filter really does bring the engine appearance back to the '60's.
