Maybe, considering when they were new in 1970 they were $290 Roll Eyes

The guy I bought them from is a "professional" engine builder... even advertises in HotVWs!!! Can't believe he didn't know!!!

A pair of Reece fish carbs with manifolds and linkage for my planned 1776 daily driver.
I used to run a single Reece fish on a 74 bug and loved it. Two must be better, right??  Wink

The Reece fish carbs simplicity is legendary! It has no jets as such and is completely adjustable by screws.
The original claim was improved performance with better mpg!

Google Reece fish, there is alot of good sites with how they work.
