Post Moto Guzzi in 2CV
Hi,

Has anybody done or has knowledge of a Moto Guzzi engine in a 2cv, Not Lomax etc.

Concerned about cooling when enclosed in the 2CV as the Moto Guzzi is entirely air cooled with no fan.

Perhaps...
A 4x4 2cv is heavier than a standard car, may be 80kg +, so more power torque would be nice.
Many have done the BMW set up successfully albeit with v large oil cooler etc.
The Moto Guzzi V is perhaps a more elegant solution, however seem less engines around as the Lowmax guys have got them.
Cooling is my main concern :(

yes, the heads being in the top of engine compartment, won't be good.

Also the BMW will have trouble cooling in off road as you don't have much speed...
