Re: [1302 eGroup] Ride Height

You may be correct. Stock 2 L parts are probably more available than specialty bits for an1835 or other configuration. perhaps the correct carb setup complemetned with the right exhaust is better route for your situation. I have found that the forums on the Samba website to be very informative. I do not know much about the 2 L per se. Anyone else?

I agree either are two options, the T4 or rebuild the 1600 into an 1834. Maybe incorrectly, but I consider that the T4 is built for the larger engine sizes and...	Mike Knight metric_thumbs	Jul 27, 2003 8:07 pm
