I was reading about carbs and somehow ended up on a site that talked about Fish carbs. Seems to be a lot of info on what it is and who invented it, but not much else.
I see there was a version of it (Reece-Fish) designed to work on VW Beetle engines, which got me thinking if anyone had ever tried to use one on a 914 engine... Does anyone know of anyone to use one and what kind of results they got?? Anyone?? |

They were quite an item in the 60s when I was a kid. My dad had them on our cars and I believe a relative sold them. Anyway, they were supose to provide more power and better gas mileage. Probably in the same class as the Frantz oil filter. If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
