Post GS engine in 2CV6
Hello!
I'm about to start a restoration, and have decided to place a chassis of 2cv6 (3c.v) Special GS engine. - May you give me some advice or information, if anyone has done, this type of change engine?
Thank you very much.

In the UK they are usually called sidewinders. You might want to strengthen a normal 2cv chassis or use an Ami chassis.

It's old hat nowadays, they're not as reliable, powerful or light as the BMW bike engines which are the way to go if you haven't bought an engine yet. If you have, then don't worry too much, the pro's are that theyre easier to fit with basic skills and cheaper.

Thank you all for the comments, the links are very interesting.
I'll see if instead of changing the engine, not finished restoring the Citroen G Special, which is pretty good.
