Maybe that's different. Never mind. I thought it was a progressive.

Subject: [tcb] Egas carburetor?
I am looking at replacing my dearly departed dual kadron carbs and my guru up
here tells me that I should go for an Empi Egas carb. A two barrel
synchronous carb. He says that it would be more simple than the duals with
better linkage and lots of power. http://www.jbugs.com/product/47-0628.html ;
It may require an electric fuel pump. Any expert thoughts on that?
I am rebuilding the engine as a 2007, we split the case and found all inside
in very good condition. We had to split the case to get at the distributer
and fuel pump junk that had fallen inside the case. The pistons and cylinders
are OK, maybe needs new rings. Found a wierdness: on one of the cylinder
heads was something that looked like a wormhole between the cylinder and the
head near a valve and out to the exterior. Very strange. Fire source? Should
have made a dead cylinder, but I never noticed.
All in all I am very lucky. I think it had a lot to do with our local fire
department putting the fire out so quickly. By the way, I put the video up on
Youtube MURRAY THE 1963 VW BUS ON FIRE That was taken 4 minutes after I
called 911. The body is a little lumpy, but not as bad as when I bought him.
So, back to the dual Kadrons ($500) or Egas ($350)? What would you do?
