There's not a lot on the site to translate...

A bit about whether to go for carbs or injection.
A bit about the Weber 40DCOE/Dellorto 40DHLA carbs or the Bosch K-Jet injection they're using.

And lots of seriously horny photos of manifolds, plenums & carbs.
GS twin carb or injection
2cv downdraught carb or vertical throttlebody injection
2cv sidedraught carb or horizontal throttlebody injection.

I'm very surprised they're using Bosch K-Jet - that's the old mechanical constant injection that died out in the mid '80s. I'd have expected they'd be using one of the modern mappable engine managements. <shrug>

I like this : http://www.2cv-performances.com/shop/pr ... _product=6

Not sure I'm bothered by the K-Jet though, one of the more reliable injection systems. I'm very tempted, tbh...

My french isn't so good (ie it's non existant). What else might I need to get to put one of these things working?

Does anyone have any experience of these?

The €200 price seems to just be for the manifold. On top of that, you're going to want the carb or throttle body and some kind of filter set-up.

If you go for the carb, you're going to need to do some work to set the jetting up correctly - they may well be able to give you details, but it'll depend on your exhaust setup and other factors.

For the injection, you're going to need a LOT of other odds'n'sods... I've got all the hardware to get Megasquirt up'n'kicking, apart from modifying an inlet manifold, but I'm looking at putting it on the G engine in the Mehari (the day the fuel supply's the biggest item on the to do list...) - and €700 for the G manifold...?

Hmm - looking a bit more expensive then! tbh, the picture here:

Looked like most of the kit required, but there's gonna be a decent fuel pump requried too I guess. The nice thing about k-jet is that it's mechanical, imho.

The fact that they list that as one product for carb or injection makes me think it's just the manifold. Oh, and...

I'll stick this idea on ice for a moment then. :(
