Re: [T3] Switching Carbs to FI

["Dave Hall" <dave@hallvw.clara.co.uk>]

I may be wrong about this, but I suspect many of the swapmeet Solex twin
carbs will have single port headers, and quite a proportion will have
6-volt idle valves.  Since the (later) Bentley manual doesn't deal with
carbs at all, I presume all the 68-on Type 3s in the States are FI.  You
may have trouble getting all the bits easily.

Aah!  I see it now - Mexico and maybe Canada?
