I just bought these carbs from the samba. Just wanted to se if you guys think ai just wasted my money, it looked like a pretty good deal to me, they looked as though they were in pretty good shape. I picked them up for $275 which included shipping as well. They will be going on ym 1915. Thanks for the opinions. http://www.thesamba.com/vw/classifieds/detail.php?id=251691

They will be fine on your engine. Lots of people are going for Weber IDF's or Dellorto DRLA's, but the Kadrons should be ok if setup properly. You might find that they starve your engine a little, ( depending on spec of engine ) and you might want to upgrade to Weber 40 or 44 IDF's, or Dellorto 40 or 45 DRLA's in the future. Go with it for now and see how you get on. You can always sell them on if they are not suitable for your needs. Happy New Year.
