You can still find 652s in french scrappies, coming over in may?

BTW, there's about five of 'em left in the UK. Quote: what about the visa gti how different is that? "Completely..." would be an understatement. It's only the two-pot that you can use.

Re: 652's??  Quote: Antony from Bandung West Java sent these pictures of his 1985 FAF - he had recently rebuilt his 602cc 2CV engine by using the pistons/sleeves from a 1500cc VW to upgrade his egnine size to 750cc. Sounds like good ole Citroenist ingenuity to add a few horsies to this rare 2CV derivative.
sounds interesting.

5! wot about in france? Plenty of Visa and LN machines here. Not legal to fit in 2cv's without Citroens approval and you won't get that.

Re: 652's?? A good 602 is better than an average 652, the 'big bore' conversion's not my cup of tea. Tight (many late boxes were/are) or sloppily rebuilt gearboxes are big power wasters and a good box can liberate more power than a bigger engine. Cheap chassis and cheap tyres waste power, too - but who can afford Michelins with the £ at such a low?

No, you can't modify engines even upgrading 435 to 602 without approval from Citroen. If you take the car to DRIRE for inspection they will ask for approval from Citroen France. Citroen do not believe that modification is needed so you don't get their approval.

Re: 652's?? As yours is already quicker than the brand new Ford Fiesta you chased up the hill in Suffolk last weekend, what are you looking for.
