Hello,
Apologies for my first post being a wanted ad.
I am after an aircooled fuel injection system ( the manifolds etc) and also an aircooled engine fan housing like this:
Cheers Paul

Welcome Paul, no issue about this being your first post.
Just curious, are these parts for a Brazilian Kombi or are you wanting to transpose onto a Classic Bay? If for a Brazilian, what's led to you needing these bits?

I am after them for a turbocharged engine build for my splitscreen camper! The reduction in height would be useful for fitting everything in!

Ah sounds fun. To be honest I think you'll struggle somewhat with those bits, in 6 years of running this site I've only known of 1 set being available, and that was because someone was wanting carbs for simplicity. But you never know ....

I don't suppose many get broken for parts! The injection is fairly easy to get hold of from Mexico (and cheap to post), it is the fan housing which is a bit more elusive!

Isn't it just a standard 1600 fan housing? Never compared the 2.

They are about 50mm shorter and don't have heater outlets - I have attached a picture at the top

Hi
Re the fan housing. Not much chance of finding a brazilian one. But there are plenty of new ones which have no heaters and also smaller height. Try searching the usual suppliers.
The injection manifolds again will be hard to find. But yet again there are loads aftermarket versions drilled for injection. Try cb performance or other suppliers which have turbo manifolds.
