Honestly surprised that I haven't received a single bit of interest. Well, except for all the 'don't sell it!' advice. :laugh: Kirby

Having just had my Pantera race car ZF apart, I agree.

Don, Sorry they're not working out with you. I've always had good luck with them, which is why I offered them as an option. Hope you get it all sorted out! Regards, Kirby

I had to replace mine with one from Olthoff. I haven't yet disassembled it to see where it was leaking.... FWIW, Kirby

Looking good, Don! Kirby

I have Webers on my Pantera race car and I would agree with Jac on the fuel pressure. Any more than 3.5 psi and mine will start 'dribbling'. I fought for months trying to keep a consistent pressure. It would vary for seemingly no reason at all. I went through 4 of the Holley regulators. They...

Mike, You must be getting old... :-) A 'couple of years ago' was 2009 at the 45th Reunion at Road America! After I'd had a couple of whatever I was drinking that evening... I know the feeling... Kirby

In addition to the original list, I sat down tonight and tried to remember everything I've done to the car. I've had it since 2007 when Mike Trusty, Jacke Houpe and I went to Dennis Olthoff's and picked it up. A more comprehensive list of things that make 2155 what it is: Interior -...

Thanks, Ron. Came in third in the last two races. An old fart can learn to drive!

Editing this on 29 January 2019: I will open it up again and see if I can sell my Superformance GT-40 MKII 2155 I keep getting told the price is too high, so, I'll lower it $5,000 $140,000 Why am I selling it? I have too many other things to work on and I don't pay it justice. I don't drive it...

Maybe you've seen this before, but it was new to me! https://www.goodwood.com/grrc/event-coverage/members-meeting/2017/1/video-the-perfect-vantage-point-as-gt40s-slide-at-74mm/

From the FWIW department, I am 6' 2" and around 215. Long legs. I did not fit either. I drove Dennis Olthoff's MkII and thought it was just OK, but he had taken out some foam. I ended up taking out the foam 'seats' altogether and built my own. I'm almost sitting on the floor and am back all...

For what it's worth... I will be at Classic Lemans, but sans GT40. It has to stay home in Texas. My son-in-law will be driving his Chevron B16. This is the same car that was featured in the movie 'Lemans'. It's going back after running in the 1970 race. You can't miss it. Red #44...

Don, Any luck with the paint shop I recommended? Regards, Kirby

Jac, Your thoughts are appreciated. 1.One of my old clients recently imported one of the ex nascar motors... one very implicit instruction... do not idle below 2000 RPM. Interesting. The friend who helped build this engine based on the success he's had with his 'formula' also said...

I'm resurrecting this thread since I had a failure with this motor and wanted to get some feedback. It was running great and I've had a lot of fun with it, but at Hallet two weeks ago, I was coming onto the straight in the qualifying session, saw the checkered waving and nailed the throttle...

Interesting comment. I have the new GT350 and I love it. Yes, it's bigger than the Pantera and the GT40... much so! But the car handles! Very well. And the clutch feel is easily fixed by just removing the helper spring. Yeah, it is too soft as delivered.... FWIW, Kirby

Re: 2016 Mustang Shelby GT350 for sale I am very impressed with the car. I don't miss my GT500 at all. The handling is great, it drives nice and goes like stink around corners. I suppose I need to take it to the track and see, but just driving to work is a hoot. I go the long way just to...

Re: 2016 Mustang Shelby GT350 for sale I got mine for sticker price. FWIW, Kirby
