Quick question... Will this pipe for a metal box air filter... http://www.ecas2cvparts.co.uk/pipe-from ... -p-67.html fit onto a late twin choke carb? I've decided to return J to standard air filer box (possibly will have enac spare wheel carrier for sale after french national) and have acquired a decent metal box filter from Ruskington today. So before I splurge on the rubber... will it fit? If not I'll stick to the standard plastic box. Cheers, Aidan |

Well that was succinct! So will the pipe for a 26/35 solex http://www.ecas2cvparts.co.uk/pipe-from ... -1349.html fit onto a metal air filter box? Be great if it did! Cheers. |

Just tried one and 'it fits where it hits', but nothing that a Jubilee clip won't fix. Also, the heights of the outlets relative to the carburettor intake, as set by the mounting brackets, looks to be similar... Ken Rumble602 wrote: Well that was succinct!

The only cars I can think of that had a metal air box with a twin choke carb are Dyane's and Ami's. I thought your 2CV had the correct single choke carb lol. You might be able to mod a Dyane or Ami pipe to fit maybe but I know the Ami one points in a specific direction so might be not suitable. |

Thanks Ken... I'll order one off Ecas along with a set of jubilees and see how it goes from there. The engine in J is from an '88 car with a twin choke solex. Could I retrofit a single choke carb? What would be the benefit... apart from retro chic? |
