Hello - New to things VW.
Purchased a new carb for my thing (34 Pict-3) but now noiced my new carb is slightly different. The one I removed has an additional bracket and vacuum linkage like shown in the picture. What is this piece and do I need it, if the new carb doesn't come with it?

appreciate the help.

Older thread and may be already answered elsewhere but the answer to your question is no, this can be bypassed.

What type of distributor are you running?
Distributor replaced with this. Was a double vac advance.
I guess, I’m trying to understand how much I need to replace with exactly came off the original and to what extent the base 1600cc engine can be reconfigured with different distributors one carbs.
