But she has to go on the dyno first to check and fix the ignition and injection.
    Will let you know the results. Expecting 370 HP...

    Take a lot of love with a ton of passion, add a bag of money and mix. Do not forget to add a bit of crazyness just before ending the mix. Add a slice of kindness to sweet the taste.
    You have Trudi and her owner.

    Easy spec.

    Hello Kris,
    I will do my best to answer your «wide» question in english!

    The base is a 3.0 SC alloy. With a 76,4 crankshaft long run. Special steel rods. Mahle 100 pistons. JE 100 crankshafts 4 bearings. RSR modified fuel pump cam V-109. RSR strips oil filter. Correct RSR slide injection. Bosch double ignition. Large RSR oil tank with RSR overpressure valve. Front RSR large cooler with right oil lines. Small turbine. Correct RSR plastic surrounder.

    The exhaust is the famous Neil Bainbridge (BSMotorsport) RSR model, with closing valves (reduce the noise from about 110 deb to 95 deb). Connected to spaghettis (no more heating).

    The gear box is a 915 with reinforced main shaft. RSR side cover reinforced. RSR oil pump and correct RSR left side oil tubing. Spraybars on the gears. Limited slip 80%.

    This car is now a perfect RSR tribute, technically and optically. By the way, she is awesome to drive. You can ask Brakekiller (my best fan!), who drove it in Dijon last may. And he still didn't try the last upgrading...

    Installed repro tail light lenses from SMC. Screws are too small, but otherwise okay, IMO.

    I'm sorry, Arne, there's no vendor ID or coding on their tag or receipt. There was a bad batch going around a year ago with dull silver trim. But these look like chrome.

    Cool

    I had my passenger seat re-webbed at George Baloian's shop today.

    He did the driver's side in '06 and it was time to do the other....

    When I had these original seats reupholstered in '90 the webbing and foam was so good we didn't touch them....

    The new type webbing is MUCH better and will last forever.... meaning longer than me.....

    So here you're looking at today's before shot of the underside of an original '73 sport seat.... with seat-belt buzzer sensor.
