Hi Cam! Really like your tow hook set-up :thumbsup:

Good point Brian, but they`r just 4.5L...........

Not everything is supposed to be easy, right ? Sometimes the journey is........ :laugh:

crash, 911 engines use Nikasil, and 928 engine use Alusil. Yes it`s a really strong material, but as you say it costs about the same to replate the original liners as it does to have new much bigger ones made :stunned: I`ve seen Alusil bores after 200.000km still showing the "45` stripes"...

OK, so there you go Dusty! For a more complete 962 replica, I think you should go for a 928 GTS engine, change the cylinder liners for steel ones, that way you have much more pistons to choose from (the std liners are Alusil plated) A gentleman at Rennlist forums called Hacker-Pschorr built a...

Now you`r talking :thumbsup: Although the 997 RSR uses a 4L engine whitch is supposed to be fairly maxed out on the bores, I guess you could stroke it to maybe 4.2. I guess you all know that Porsche was working on putting the 928 32V engine in the 962 for the 88 season of Le Mans, so...

eeerrr...... no thanx :shocked: hhhhmmmmmm........... :lurker:

Hi Fran and others, I thought the picture you posted was an SL-C with bundle snakes, but i se now that it`s not, OUPS! My bad....... Yes I know the X-brace is an integral part of the chassis, but do you think it would be possible to modify the transmission (Ricardo, G50, Mendy) so that you...

Holy Mega Byte!!! Caparo eat your heart out! :pepper:

Hi Rob! No our flight to Newark got cancelled, so I`m back in Norway :evil: Better luck in the summer i hope..... YES! That`s what I was hoping for! With the car already having a nice and what looks like a funtional roof scoop, what is more natural then let the engine breathe the cold air...

My first thought was to put the muffler where Fran put the 2 single mufflers on the #18 car on top of the transmission. I understand it`s a really tight sqeez, and I was just tossing out an idea :shy: Either way I think we are talking some serious heat shilding of the FG, unless one God...

Hi there Rob! I LOVE your car and build log!! Please take a look at the link below. The circular marking on your alu.fire wall, is that for an intake tube to the engine? I ask because that is what I would like to do if I choose to go for an SL-C...

Hello gents! I must in all honesty say that I find it really strange that a well built car like the SL-C does not have a good solution for a muffled exhaust system. I meen, look at the #18 car ! Looks like Fran & Gang pulled it off really nice. Yes I can see the difficulty making a functional...

Well, I guess God didn`t hear my prayer :mad: I`m back in Norway do to bad weather around Newark Airport. Our flight got cancelled, but we were lucky enough to get a flight back to Oslo. I`m angry as HELL, but that`s for a different thread...........

Yes Will, we fly out of Heathrow this sunday as long as GOD forbid the flight doesn't get cancelled again :veryangry: I'll call you when I'm ready.

+ 10 on that one folks ! Me and my family are stuck in London on our way to the States since monday of this week. I saw the Top Gear Christmas show at the hotel room, and BOY was I pleased to see a familiar "face" when the yellow beauty showed up on the screen :thumbsup: BTW, I liked the...

Hi ArtGirl! That`s nothing to be ashamed of, far from it! It just goes to show what a true gearhead you are ;) I too have to admit that the best part of my spare time goes to study both the GTM and the SL-C. My wife is not impressed by this, but now I know what to tell her when she complains...

Yes I hear you guys, "it`s just the way it goes" right ? Somehow I have never commited to anything so strong that I couldn`t see the truth :lipsrsealed: Yes one tend to be able to overlook (some) flaws in the favorite thing/car/girl/++ don`t we? ;)
