EMPI ICT Carburettor Hex Bar Linkage Kit - Type 1 Engines

This EMPI-manufactured Hex Bar Linkage Kit is a high-quality accelerator linkage system designed for all classic aircooled Volkswagens running 1300cc to 1600cc engines. Suitable for VW Beetles, Karmann Ghias, Splitscreen Buses, and Baywindow Buses, this linkage kit provides smooth, precise carburettor operation and is an essential upgrade when fitting dual carburettor setups.

Engineered for use with EMPI EPC 34 or Weber 34 ICT carburettors, this kit includes a robust 660mm hex bar, delivering stable and reliable throttle action across both carburettors. The system is designed to work with both single-port and twin-port manifolds, offering excellent flexibility for various engine builds.

The kit features:

• Heavy-duty thick mounting plates for strength and stability

• Aircraft-quality Heim joints for ultra-smooth, precise movement

• All required hardware and gaskets for installation

This linkage setup dramatically improves throttle response and carburettor synchronisation compared with traditional rod-type linkages. It ensures both carburettors open evenly, which is crucial for balanced fuel delivery, smooth acceleration, and consistent engine performance.

Important Note:

• This kit does NOT include carburettors or manifolds – it is the linkage system only.

• Perfect for any engine running dual EPC 34 or ICT carbs.

Ideal for everyday driving, performance builds, and engine upgrades where accuracy and durability are essential.
