Hi, Is there anyone out there who has tried both the ZF and the Quaife transmissions in the Superformance GT40s? If so, can you give your impressions, including as to shift quality, durability and overall operation? As you may tell from my posts, I am seriously considering swapping my ZF for...

Hi: Does anyone have some recent price information on the cost of a new/rebuilt ZF transmision for our cars vs. the cost of a new Quaife transmission? Thanks, /s/ Chris Kennedy

Hi: My MKII was built out by Olthoff with the Olthoff shift kit, which means I have no practical knowledge of how the shifting was before the kit was installed. Frankly, I find the shift quality overall to be lousy, all things considered----slow, heavy, notchy and really clunky for over 6,000...

Hi, I ordered the transmission for my Mark II (an RBT(ZF)) back in 2017. At the time the Quaife transaxle was on an indefinate hold. Recently, I have been reading posts that appear to say that a new and improved Quaife transaxle is available? Is this true? If so, what's new and improved? Is...

Hi: I have a stock Superformance MKII that uses the Roush 427 SR engine. I use the car on the street---no track work. I am wondering what radiator (head tank) pressure cap pressure people are using. Thanks for your help, /s/ Chris Kennedy

Hi, Does anyone know if Raceline Digital Graphics is still making GT40 decals? I found their website but no GT40 goods. /s/ Chris Kennedy

Hi! I'm getting ready to replace the rear spoiler/Gurney Tab on my Superformance GT40MKII and have several questions for those who may be familiar with how to do this: 1. It appears that six fasteners on the outside of the spoiler have hex nuts or screws which screw into fasteners on the...

Hi: I have a Superformance MKII and may be interested in a pair of wind diffusers if someone has these. The diffusers I am referring to mount on the outer edges of the front hatch. Thanks, /s/ Chris Kennedy

Hi: I have a ZF in my Superformance GT40 MKII, but am wondering whether anyone has installed a Mendeola Transaxle in their Superformance car. If so, did it require major changes and, generally, how did it go? I have asked Mendeola about this, as well, and the response seemed encouraging but...

Hi: If anyone can recommend a shop for Superformance GT40 repair in the San Diego, California area I would appreciate it. Thanks, /s/ Chris Kennedy

Hi: Just a quick note to alert you to an error in the SPF wiring diagram in the Owner's Manual concerning the fuses for the 2nd and 3rd speeds of the HVAC blower fan. The SPF diagram (first page, which shows the fuse/relay box), incorrectly identifies fuses #15 and #16 as the fuses for the...

Hi: I am just curious whether the Quaife transmissions for GT40s is now readily available new? For a long time it was on some sort of production hold. Thanks, /s/ Chris Kennedy

Hi: I still have in place the large aluminum plate that attaches to the inside of the rear clamshell and runs below the window on my Superformance GT40MKII. It comes down to cover the engine (there's a cutout around the air cleaner). I am thinking about removing it, but have learned to ask...

Hi: Has anyone used a Tilton hydraulic throwout bearing with the ZF transmission? If so, what was your experience and do you know the model number? Also, has anyone used the McCleod Series 1402-22 slip on? Again, if so, what was your experience with it? Thanks! /s/ Chris Kennedy

Hi: I feel silly for asking this question but I am having a really difficult time trying to get an accurate check on the oil level in the Roush 427 SR in my Superformance GT40 MKII. The car has the standard Superformance oil cooler, and after driving the car and letting it sit overnight the...

Hi: I thought I would expand this search to this world-wide forum to see if anyone has the following parts for my Superformance GT40 MKII: 1. The round plugs which cover the access holes to the fuel line on the door post. 2. The grommets into which the the strikers on the rear clam shell...

Hi: I am looking for one of the cover plugs over the fuel lines on the driver side doorpost (see picture attached called "Plug"), and a couple of the grommets into which the rear clam shell pins fit when lowered (see picture attached called grommets). I appreciate any help or suggestions...

Apologies if I have not called the inset window which is hinged and can be flipped open by its proper name, but I am wondering if anyone knows the size of the tiny hex screws which attach the plexiglass to the metal supports. I lost one, and could use some spares, as well. Thanks, /s/ Chris...

Hi: I am somewhat of a movie buff, and at a huge movie industry convention going on now in Las Vegas Disney showed the first official trailer from "Ford vs. Ferrari" (Disney now owns 20th Century Fox, the studio). Apparently, it absolutely floored the attendees and was a huge hit. I haven't...

Hi: I had a great morning finally locating and solving an electrical problem that was preventing my MKII's fans from coming on. It turned out simply to be a blown 40 AMP fuse located near the battery (probably blew out when some debris lodged in one of the fans and preventing it from turning)...
