. . . So if I can sell this brand new beautiful 34 pic I . . .  


If you want to sell a 34, you'll have to find a "newbie" that doesn't know any better yet!  Speaking from my experiance as a newbie a few years ago, the school of hard knocks for air-cooled VWs is expensive, but you never forget what you learn.  If someone gives me a brand new 34 still in the box, I'd leave it in the box and bolt on a worn out 30-31 any day.  You will loose a little top end speed by going to the 30-31, but you can actually enjoy driving the car.  Oh, and if no one has told you, you need an adaptor to bolt a single port carb (30-31) on a dual port intake.  :wink:   8)

Adapter? No I am glad you told me because no one else has mentioned that...I am going to have to slide this one past Rick. He said no NEW stuff for FeeBee only maintainence. Wonder if this can be changed out in the parking lot at work :lol: He will never notice :lol:

I would not want someone to have the same probs I have so I could not sell this 34 knowing that it won't work for them. Is there a target group that could use it? I have decided this is maintainence for FeeBee and I am going to buy the 31 pic. I will search and then post what I find to make sure I am getting the correct one. I only have 2 feet and I need 3 to drive FeeBee :D I think I will go ahead with the new tranny too. OMG Rick is going to kill me :roll: say a little prayer that he is understanding...

I,ll be more than happy to put it on for you. I have longed for the day. Even if I stop for a "Toddy" it might take 30 min. to make a real car out of FeeBee. :lol:  :lol:  Just get the dang thing W/ADAPTER :lol:  :lol:
