The Squareback I’ve just bought is fitted with a 1700cc Type-4 motor
Problem is that it’s fitted with single barrel manifolds with Weber carb
Carb is way to high
Will dual carb manifolds be lower as I need to make plan

Re: Type 3 Squareback Motor !!
you need to get very low profile manifolds and low profile air filters if you want to use dual webers - the only other option is 411/412 filter and carb arrangement (if it will fit in a T3)

Re: Type 3 Squareback Motor !!
Have a look at my Fastback thread, I have fitted the short Manifolds and 34 ICT with pancake cartridge air filters.....
Works well viewtopic.php?f=23&t=20281&hilit=not+19 ... 95#p230195
If you need more space for the cover, you can always oval out the holes on your gearbox front mount beam, that will give a 10 to 20 mm extra.
If you want the type 4 plastic air filter system works well, I have it on my Bay Bus the one with a square cartridge in it.
