    As FIA have been kind enough to make most old homologation forms public here http://historicdb.fia.com you can find most '02 goodies described in a lot of detail. Including 4-valve heads and guillotine intakes....

    I suppose today it's all about serviceability and endurance in historic racing but most are pushing over 200hp reliably from a 2-valve carbed M10. I've seen these guys run a few cars like that, and they do it very well! http://www.engels-rennsport.de/projekte.html Last time I was there they had just started another new build for stock. (yes shameless plug, meet them and you'll understand)

    3 of my favourite Wheels for the 02
    Early Mag Campagnolo 5.5x13 the same as on the Schnitzer Car in AMS 12/69
    and the 4 spoke ATS in 6x13
    P1140382.jpg
    as well as the early type of 3 piece Alpina
    P1140383.jpg

    I am still looking for a set of Borrani Bimetall might also consider trade in with a set of the above Campy or ATS as I have two sets of each

    @flunder I envy your Campys

    Hi today the top 2 liter 8 valve cars are north of 260hp but they might need a rebuild during the season

    Yes, that DED review is truly an epic piece. Nobody writes like that anymore. Right up there with the work of Yr. fthfl svrt, Henry Manney III.

    I was surprised to hear him say he liked to hunt and defeat the "Porsche's". He must have been talking about 356's and 912's. Don't think a 02 could outrun a 911, if drivers were equal.
