Nice clean install. Did you use a Spal puller fan?.
I'm adding an Water Air IC to my 603A and yes you are right configuring it around the air cleaner is challenging.

Ill post photos when I start.

I have just one pic from the first road test.

The car is moving good. Virtually no need for low gears with the 6.17 diffs. :twisted:

anyway , the P4 has a different bodyshell , windshield frame and fold down softtop , as i know they never have front lockers and no power steering box .
your front fenders have been converted to G class , maybe much more like steering wheel , dashboard , seats ?

The body is the same in fact. Windshiled frame is different (bigger) and the soft top is folding - a feature that I like a lot. I has jump seats in the back.
I have added power steering and a custom dashboard (almost finished, will post pics when ready)
Front seats are also different, there is storage place beneath them.

Top speed with 6.17 is something like 120 km/h but who drives fast a cabrio in the end :mrgreen:

Tuning is a never-ending process. :)

I decided I do not like the electronics and fitted a machanical IP. I have to make a custom throttle cable - so I am accepting any ideas :)

hello I'm also with a similar project with a 605 turbo, I recommend that the mechanical pump be dieselmeken and avoid a lot of headaches.
Could you help me by indicating which carter I use for your 605 ?.
what motor brackets do I use?, I could put photos please, I would appreciate your help, thanks
