My 1987 ADAC Syncro Pritsche has dual carbs - I have NO idea who makes them.
They are VERY thirsty about 15L per 100km.  When you tromp on the pedal you
can here this great sucking sound and I swear the gas gauge moves!  On the
up side there is LOTS of power back there.  There is not a typical engine
cover on the Transporter, but if there was, it would certainly give enough
clearance.
