Right, this is the baffle unit I have and my engine is a Perfo engine but from the 12th April’55 – so citroen did mix up the parts towards the end of the Perfo it seems.The previous owner did not do any work on the car from 1967 so if the original owner had any repairs down it was in the first 12 years of its life. Very strange 😯

I was sent this through by Peter Larsen of CTA explaining the procedure on fitting – if only I knew before it would have been finished – but you have to learn somewhere, right 🙂

I am going to try and get it repaired as I cannot find a replacement anywhere at present – hopefully a few phone calls tomorrow might find something but the per equivalent is in excess of €100 so maybe 30mins in a weld shop might be cheaper.
