In conclusion I ended up finding two cars both posted from contributors here that met the criteria except livery. In the end I bought a new roller and am having the car built to the specs I wanted with McLaren livery. I would like to ask a question on opinion about canards on a mk11. While they...

I think they were talking about a pump of some sort.

Specs are 496 FE, Quaife 5sp

Hi I have just secured a build spot for a mk11. The dealer is saying that a transmission cooler is not necessary unless you're going to be racing the car hard. He also said that they are very noisy. At this point I have not ticked the option box but definitely will do if recommended by owners...

According to Hillbank superformance in it Irvine California 80% of superformance GT40 MK2 builds are big block FE's 427 or 496. So what I'm l looking for is not that rare.

I have spoken with cam on several occasions. We met when he refused to let me join his club just because I wasn't a kiwi. Said he didn't want to dilute the bloodline or something. Yes he does have an FE in it, amazing car. Spf com specifically recommends a 302, 351w or a 427fe as the preferred...

Ever heard of one being a 4sp. He's sending paperwork on it but what he read was zf 4sp no dogsleg

I agree but having a car you're rarely going to get out of 2nd is tough, I rarely get the cobra out of 3rd

How big a difference between the t44 and the zf? I always thought the zf to be a 5sp but apparently not so in this case.

What's the value in your opinion?

I just called, seems promising, he is sending more information. It is a zf 4sp car, not sure how that stacks up against a t44. T44 problem is 91 mph in 1st and 151 mph in 2nd makes for a very tough street car. The link you sent is a broker so a lot more information is needed. Thanks for the lead
