DCNF carbs

(1/8) > >>

Rune:
Just wondering, when did people start putting these carbs on theyr motors? Are they a part of the early cal look, or more an early to mid 80s thing? I have noticed that there are some cool old school intakes and filters out there for them, but I don't think I have seen them in use on any of the early cars..
And another thing, what is the modification that makes the "Berg specials" so special..?

Diederick/DVK:
i've got the 1976 HotVW cal-look issue, and i remember at least one engine sporting DNCF carbs.
so, i'm guessing they're not an 80-ies thing.

Zach Gomulka:
DCN's came first. I think the DCNF's were introduced in about '75. In a bug you have to trim the edge of the compartment to clear filters. I used Berg 42 Specials in my type 3 and I think they are the perfect carbs for pancake engines because of the short profile. Ive heard 40s have the wrong circutry, and 44's are just as good as 42's. For driveability and mileage, I dont think there are better carbs for a big motor.

That's what I've been running for over 15 years.  They work great if you don't have to look like everyone else with 48s.
