Did the bmw exhaust have a balance pipe?
New pipes look tidy, are they SSteel?

Depends on the model, I think most are 2 into 1.

This is from the 1200 GS look at the 2 bungs for the lambda probes, theyve done everything to make it superfuelefficient, sequential injection aso.

normally they say a balancepipe gives you more midrange torq..... but do I need that, I think it will bring me and the gearbox in even more trouble.....

my exhaust is "stoombuis" translated its steamtube it is about 3mm wall-thick... so should do the trick....

Thanks for your offer..... may be I will come back to it......

I'm thinking to make the adaptor plate out of 6mm steel, with 30*3mm strip as a seam running along the outerline giving massing strenght to it.......

6mm steel I can do with my jig-saw, then I can also weld the engine-mounts directly to it....
Then making many holes in it to lighten it up.....

Got several parts to make it happen....

Electric petrolpump, powered by 1-2-Spark. It will run for 8 seconds when the ignition is turned on or ofcourse when the engine rotates....

Oilcooler, from a automatic gearbox from Ford pickup..... Still to small I guess, probably I will put it again in the right front fender like my turbocar....

Flywheel bolts M11*1.5..... Have got four but I need 5 arghhhh....

Won also a right valvecover on Ebay, this part was what I still was missing.. It is full of scratches, so no Motorcyclist wants it on his/her bike, so an opportunity for us 2cv drivers....


My plan is to make the engine run without flywheel, just to look if it runs.
hopefully it runs so I can order the flywheel spacer(s) and make the adaptorplate.....

Ok, so if anybody dear to say this is ridiculous he's got a problem with me....

THIS IS RIDICULOUS...... but I like it...... a lot...... 8-) 8-) 8-) 8-) 8-) 8-) 8-) 8-)

ALso did some wishfull thinking, an Original Beamer has got a catholic? converter, I have a very free flow exhaust so should give me some extra horsepower...



Try to shape the fenders, but because I channeled the car I miss just these 7cm.. On a standard 2cv it would fit perfectly, but no it has to be a channeled car.... sh*t....
