Has anyone ever tried using Holley 94's on their dual carb setup? IMO the Holley 94 is one of the best carbs ever designed. Few moving parts, extreamly simple to tune, as compact as a stock VW carb, cheap to buy and rebuild, and easy to get parts for. The 2100 carbs(Bugspray) was Holley 94 based, but got a bad rep. I gather it didn't work well mainly because the manifold wasn't properly designed so it didn't run that well.

But, on short custom fabed dual intakes, icing wouldn't be much of a problem, and I bet they'd work great. What are your opinions? Thanks.

-Jeff

See How to HotRod your VW. It talks about using them.

Good luck fabricating a linkage system or trying to find one that you can modify.

A standard dual carb linkage will work. Just needs to be adapted at the carb end to fit the 94 linkage. The throttle butterflys open just like on webers.
