    CVR(T) FV103 Spartan VS. Hotchkiss 22-2 Schützenpanzer help

    Yes it'll work. The 4.0 is actually a better engine as far as longevity and repairability. They sound good too. Better horsepower and torque than a stock throttle body injected Chevy 350.

    Use a Jeep 4.0L engine and it'll put both manifolds on the opposite side, then some simple plumbing and done. The 4.0 is a great engine as well, and lots of torque, plus aftermarket support. You can go electronic with it, or old school carbureted with the 4.2L if you want.

    CVR(T) FV103 Spartan VS. Hotchkiss 22-2 Schützenpanzer help

    Buy something you will be able to get parts for 20 years down the road ( think small parts too, not just track and road wheels). Edit: Fwiw, I've never seen any piece of French machinery that was engineered well and LASTED.
