Just been having a gander around as theres a few cheap weber 40s around at the moment.

I know there was a way or running just the one (twin 40s are too expensive), found this

anyone know anything?... especially about the 'lynx manifold'. I can find a few for BMW's just not for VW's

Cheers

I had a single Weber 40 DCOE with a Lynx manifold on a Mark 1 GLS back in the late 80's early 90's. Still got the carb and manifold. Had to fabricate/modify a standard linkage kit though to attach the throttle cable.

Cool, it was something I was looking into but the lynx mani's are like rocking horse shat. I'm going 3234 dtml for now...

Cheers for the info though.

Well, all my current Sciroccos are injection, so I have no need for either..................................
