Does anyone have detailed pics or source for the Al plenums used to adapt the brake cooling ducting to front and rear uprights on MK11's ?
Thanks, Steve |

Ron,could have sworn there was a post from you but, now it's gone...OH well in case I wasn't dreaming that you responded:
For the SPF MK11 with chassis and uprights pretty much like original so I'd like to try to ape the originals if I can get some detail..Problem is in all the books I have these areas are not well presented.
Do you have any pics, prints or ideas?
Tx, Steve | |

here is some pics I took in Le Mans in 2006. From various motors, but it might give you a flavour of what is required. On the front ducting, the smaller ducts goes direct to the cockpit.

Anyone knowing where these ducts can be purchased (for a GTD with Hi Spec brakes)?
I'm interested.
