Empi-Style Dual Carb for VW Bug?

[Calb56]

Didn't want to hijack the Texas 3D thread, his turbo vw engine is beautiful but lil overkill for what I need. Does anyone cast just an Empi style 2 carb set up for Webers?

Thanks...

I will be making that same engine that Iceman makes, just a little over loaded at the time, I will be designing a stinger exhaust next year to use on the non turbo flat 4's both the Porsche and VW variants.

So I made this stinger exhaust up to fit my NA flat fours currently just the Porsche but will be doing the VW version at the same time. Any thoughts as to good or bad would be appreciated.

Perfect!

[Mike C.]

Nice! ?

[Texas_3D_Customs]

So here it is printed later today I will list the other two flat fours (NA VW and Turbo Porsche) along with these two exhaust systems as upgrade items.

Like the exhaust system. You mentioned ideas so I'll share what I had years ago. I think it was a system Impi offered at the time. Where the pipes come together, they formed a small collector with the option of bolting on a Stinger like your design or a small Muffler that would make the Baja Street legal. Hard to see much detail from one of the few pictures I have from that time, b ut maybe it will give you an idea that may or not be usable. 

[Mike C.]

I'll keep checking the site for option A. ?

So all I understand that there are a hundred different exhaust systems I can't make a hundred different exhaust systems there is a limit to how many things I have time to design in inventory I'll consider doing one more though

THAT is exactly the engine I've been wanting to see. With the stinger set up that's just art. Period.
