Moonmonkey Posted November 26, 2021 Share Posted November 26, 2021 Hi sorry to jump on your post, but I'm also in search of a CIH sump as well if anybody has a second one. The dipstick tubes can be bought new from https://www.altopelhilfe.de/product_info.php?info=p5708_oelpeilstab--fuehrungsrohr-cih--spezial-.html They are only€12.69, but you need to pay postage which is €19.50 minimum, so it make sense to order a few things to the weight/size limit. They only accept bank transfers under the SEPA European Transaction system, which while the UK is a member I've heard some people have had problems with. I've just order some stuff and my bank seemed to cope with it ok. Lets hope it turns up! Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll build it up for the B series coupe I have. It needs more go lol. im so used to powerful cars that’s the problem. my daily car is a c63. the grey A series has some decent raw poke. but at least the cih is in keeping with the car and won’t detract from the value 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at it you wouldn't even know it was a 2.4 in there. What's the plan, carbs or injection? My A goes pretty good for an old car with a CIH in it 🙂 No point in me bothering to try and get a fast car when i have this, as i would need to sell the house to get one quick enough to match the Honda from 0-60 !! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
611 Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 Hi Paul Here are some pics. As you cam see it needs a good clean as it's been in the loft, but it's in good condition and was on mine with no issues, I only changed it as I had my spare one powder coated.

Paul Barrett Posted November 29, 2021 Author Share Posted November 29, 2021 That looks great. Let me know what you want. im planning in stock injection with a cut down 3.0 inlet, larger AFM (bmw) nothing crazy. Prob rebuild as advised, bore wear on these 2.4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
