Since you are planning really low CR, and a tiny cam, you need 40 DRLAs. The dual single bbls will kill the engine combo.

Could I get dual Dellortos 36s to work that configurations?

They'll work a lot better than dual single bbl carbs. They will restrict the hp a bit, but they will give great throttle response and great mileage. Driving will be like a modern FI car once the carbs are set-up properly.

IMO, 44 DCNFs are kinda big for this engine.
Also, Weber specifically states that DCNFs should be installed with the throttle shafts perpendicular to the length of the car. IE. not in a VW.

In my last car I had a 2110 with 45 Dells....they worked very well....low maintance and would pass aircare no problems!

Great to hear about air care. Who tuned them?

Yes , when mounted in our VW's the float bowl will dump fuel down the throats and/or starve the main circuit during hard cornering

However, those that have run DCNFs report that they LOVE these carbs. I have never tried DCNFs, Hans has.

Yes I love mine too(except for that cornering thing) but the main attraction is that they fit in a type 3(sort of)

Those DCNF's above look like they have Type 3 manifolds. That will not work in a beetle. You would need to find Beetle DCNF manifolds.
