Great info. All captured for the GT40 Owners manual I’m working on. Would add that you should be sure you have keys for both gas caps. Some use the same key for both caps others have two different keys. Blas

Got the alignment info covered. Ride height too. Tire air pressure guidelines a bit subjective to most owners preferences and driving style. But some info is included. A couple wheel and tire combos noted but Avons no longer an option I believe. All wheel options covered… No info on coolant...

No shop manual is available from factory. You can imagine the proprietary information, they must obligated to hold close. This is Owners Manual - but as I said earlier, it will contain a lot of technical info. But to date, only Rick Muck has shared any technical info on upgrading things. Lot of...

Thank you again Markus. Wheel maintenance and safety wiring will both be covered. Regarding the Wheel bearing adjustment and replacement info I’ll need to get info from owners here on those topics.

Looking to hear from SPF owners that have their car but have done minimal assembly. I need a few photos. Contact me directly please. Specifically, exhaust tubes and a few from the box of parts. Thanks. Blas

Thank you for your thoughts. My intention is to make an Owners Manual, not a Shop Manual. I will include as much technical info as I collect, but going into the specifics of let’s say an MSD ignition module installation is outside the scope of what my manual will cover. BUT…. If owners want to...

Thank you for your input David, I have sent you a message. So how about we add a “BUILDS ADDENDUM” section addendum to the end of Owners Manual? I say “we” because you the owners must be willing to share what you have learned in the course of your drivetrain installation. Lots of different...

If any other Superformance owners want to make suggestions or share information for the manual. this would be the time to do it. Looking for info on lighting (bulbs, etc) and fueling.

Thank you. I have had that original manual in my files for a long time. I really like the cover. Please keep the suggestions and other misc stuff coming. Markus sent a great list. A couple other people too. I’m concentrating on interior now, instruments, controls, pedals, steering wheel...

Please contact me directly. Blas

Hello everyone, I would like to tell you your wishes for a Superformance GT40 Owners Manual will be realized. I am 5 Sections into a GT40 Manual project already. With your help, along with the Hi-Tech factory staff, I hope to make this an indispensable manual for all owners. I would like to...

I don’t make any distinction between the LHD and RHD Superformance GT40’s on my GT40 wiring diagrams. There is a difference in the wiring between the MKI and the MKII cars. Mostly in the lighting in the front and rear clams, hence two separate wiring diagrams. Neither designs is as per the...

Biggest issue with the LED replacement bulbs is where the actual incandescent bulb filament is vs. LED chip placement is relative to the reflector dish behind it, so the light is properly reflected from rear bowl into the clear lens in front with its focus correction ferrels. I have a set of...

Nice Procedure Write-up! Blas
