I seem to remember reading that 012 started out as a factory demonstrator and was only sold to Koenig later. Used as a demonstrator at Koenig too...
It had to happen, I listed #435 for sale. Circumstances won't permit me to finish her, she deserves a good home. See the ad here:...
Froggie, There's not much point in mounting a damper on an otherwise stock engine. The 4.9 as is functions quite well. If you want to raise your...
Ivan, I forgot to mention what a beautiful car you have there! Best, Jack.
Ivan, Bal, The Euro distributor has an advance vac capsule, not a retard as per US spec. Checked on my car #435 Bal, I misunderstood your...
I'll have a look at the dizzy and the vac cannister on monday. Bal, the way I see it you're running without vac advance. Best, Jack.
Ivan, I think most Khamsins came from the factory with the smog-pump, but the Euro-cars had speghetti headers and no thermal reactors. I have yet...
I've never seen a Bi-Turbo under the bonnet, but that would be your fuel-cooler. Especially when your tank is getting low and the outside temp is...
Congrats Neil, your car should look much like mine, same colour RHD #435. A search in this thread should bring up the correct wire-diameters for...
Welcome to the fold! So many posts over the last few days, I guess yours fell through the cracks.We are not usually so rude that we don't...
Mark, The strut in the first pic is the original. I took mine to a manufacturer, who told me they could not be re-gassed, something to do with the...

Hi Bal, Mike, Did I write about these? Can't even remember! Afaik what Bal writes about them is correct for the Euro car. Mike's, however, is a...
Kudos to Porsche for the overall win, great effort. OTOH, I am smiling at their unsympathetic effort wiith the mid-engined RSR's. :-P Best, Jack.
Maybe I missed it, but how is it that Porsche is allowed to race a mid-engined 911? Best, Jack.
Too true, Bob, and it would be quite a time-consuming project too. Think of it though, you already have hydraulic pressure at the pedal box,...
Surely it can't be too difficult to retrofit the clutch system to a Bora if one really wanted to. Best, Jack.
That's nice to hear Marc. He stuck his neck out and it looks like that is paying off. That places him in a select group of very few who made good...
Marc, You may disagree with Angus, but he makes a fair point :-) There is an (uncomfortably?) large parallel to be drawn between Jaguar and...
Hi Bal, Just had a quick browse at their site: NARDI STEERING WHEELS There are many options; I didn't measure the diameter of the original...
