Re: Oversize oil filter for a 2cv engine
Hi Lads, I fitted an oil cooler off a mini cooper some years ago. It bolted on the front cross member and I plumbed it in with all spanner fittings and hydraulic piping. The fittings into the crankcase are 16mm with Dowty washers and the mini oil cooler has 3/4 inch to 3/8 bsp adapters. Price for pi...

Re: Carb modifications
Hi Ken ,it was I that had a chat to Patrick at the Stoneme kit car show last sunday and what he said to me was that his car was suffering from almost stalling at junctions and generally was reluctant to pick up with popping and farting about.

Re: Towing a 2CV / Lomax
Jesus! I find it hard to believe that anyone in their right mind would tow a Lomax at 100mph on an A frame.
