1971–1979 VW Beetle Karmann Ghia Brosol 31 PICT-3 Upgrade Carb Kit
Upgrade your 1971–1979 Air Cooled Volkswagen beyond the smog-era 34 PICT-3 with this Brosol Solex 31 PICT-3 carburetor kit — complete with adapter, gaskets, and all hardware for a direct dual port manifold installation.
The 34 PICT-3 was a product of the emissions era — and while it does the job, the Brosol Solex 31 PICT-3 does it better. This complete kit installs directly on most stock dual port manifolds using the included adapter, replacing the 34 PICT-3 with a carburetor that improves both performance and emissions in one straightforward swap. No hunting for hardware — the adapter, gaskets, and all necessary hardware are included.
The dual arm 12-volt choke delivers correct cold start performance. All carburetors are factory preset for standard engine configuration — minor adjustment or tuning may be required for your specific application. Install a new fuel filter before use — failure to do so voids all warranty coverage. Rebuild kits are available separately for long-term service support.
