Flavia 1800 Coupe

Messaggio da leggere da Jaro »

Did any of you Flavia owners do a twin carb conversion on your 1800 coupe? I will have to rebuild my singe SolexPAIA carb, but I also have a pair of Weber IDF40 and Solex PII carbs to use... so I am thinking of an upgrade to twin carb setup as on the Zagato 1800... I also have an old picture of a 1800Coupe with two carbs... I have a few magazine articles on people who did the conversions ( Udo Dörich and Helmut GÜnther - do you know them ? ) ... but there are very few details on how they did it...

I also have to renew my exhaust... Do you have any idea, why the Subaru boxer engine sounds so deep ? I would like to have the same sound on my Flavia... I know I ask a lot, but I really like it ! Any ideas ?

Also... two of my original Flavia steel wheels are in a very poor condition... I am afraid that they are rusted through... I bought a 1970 Mille Miglia alu (or mag) wheels (14¨) with 4x130mm wheel holes . They were on VW Bug... I calculated the ET(offset) of Flavia... It is around 48... and these are 35 so it should not be a problem... I also found ATS Classic alu wheels 5.5x15 with VW bug 4x130mm wheel holes. Do you think I would have problems running on 14 inch wheels instead original 15 inch ?

I know that the best way is to keep it stock and original... but I would really like to do this conversions and give my Coup a little sportier feeling...

Thanks for any reply !

Signor Giuseppe,

leggendo i suoi consigli ho visto che l'estensione del suo indirizzo email e ---.econ.uniurb.it. Dato che sono un economista/analista finanziario Italiano che vive in USA vi sarei grato se mi puo informare se si tratta di un' universita e di economia in Italia, e se cosi di quale?

Grazie,
