What I can tell you is that you do need to dump the POSA. Many of us use Ellison, AeroCarb, or RevFlow. I like the Ellison and will let others tell you about their preferred carb. The problem with Ellison, is that you can no longer get the EFS-2, which is what you need for that VW. Due to this problem, if I were doing it again, I would find a carb that worked on a 65 HP Continental or Lycoming and go with that.

She already has an 1835 VW with a POSA carb on her, but my EAA tech advisor has encouraged me to look into a float bowl carb, for various reasons. Great Plains has the 1821 updraft carb and I have a lot of respect for Steve Bennett's work with the VW based engine. Any more info that anyone wants to offer on the fuel system? The floors open, and I will be using all of this to make my decision soon. Assuming I pass my PPL the 1st time, the VW case will be getting split open by mid June.
