is there a # for a strictly side draft weber? I have a 1600 vw motor, the manifold is for one side draft carb. I used one years ago and sold it (wished I would not have) Now I would like to use that setup again. But don't remember much about the carb. except that it was a 40 or 45 dcoe. performance was awesome, gas milege not so good.

Thank you so much for the information, It has been so long since i have dealt with them I couldn't remember, and didn't want to spend money and make a mistake. Again, thank you.
