Will these work for a VW? It looks like if I was to pull these carbs off of what they’re mounted to then they might work.
Sidenote, what’s a good price for these?

Those are Weber DCOE carbs. They're side draft and with the right manifold will work on inline watercooled VWs, but for a flat 4 aircooled engine you'll need IDFs which are down draft. (though they are used in some turbocharged setups as a single sidedraft carb)
Those seem to range in price between a couple hundred to several hundred for the pair depending on condition. |

THANK YOU! I will definitely pass on them. |
