DDK - Die Deutschen Klassiker

Guys & Gals I am Just commencing a 80s Sc to RSR 2.8 build, the bodywork is mainly complete , everything else has to go back on.It is a budget focused build but is essentially a nut and bolt job. I am not an originality nut , just wish to evoke the spirit. I would like to garner opinion on the b...

I have an original 019 RS Injection pump (1973 casting) which is surplus to requirements due to a project change. It was PMO when removed from my race engine but will need to be calibrated\checked for road use as it is set a little on the rich side :~) I want to give DDK first dibs before I put it o...

good thread guys ,i have somewhat similar curve (from Bobs as well) that i will add here later. Like you i was a bit puzzled by what was going on although the engine seemspretty healthy (3ltr/mfi/DC 80).Perhaps we can prevailon bob to give us some clarification.

Mfi cars run generally rich particularly when set up for racing, On the overun- after after a straight my car (3ltr mfi) will shoot 1 to 2ft flames out the back of the exhaust (its got no cut off switch) however it never backfires unless 1: the mixture is too lean or 2 the plug leads are mixed or th...

Many thanks Barry , the car i am referring to is the original IROC 3ltr that i think is still used on the recent Mags as a backdrop . It is currently listed with Specalist cars of Malton as "If you have to ask , you cant afford it" .It is howeve an original car. It may well be a special co...

Gentlemen I am currently engaged on a 2.8RsR project. The basis is a 3ltr 82 LHD SC backdate which has been the subject of a number of recent Magazine articles. I challenge you guys to tell me which…lol. Anyway the bodywork is mostly complete in metal, and I am now turning to colour choices. I was w...

I though you guys were just being a bit priggish , then i saw it .I thought it was a boat at first. 24,000 euro seems a tad optomistic.....Mike

Guys while you figure out what you really mean, i do have a genuine 19 dated 73, I was probably going to put it on E-bay but if a better home is on off here then its ok with me. However i would expect more than £900.

Best regards Mike

Many Thanks

Gents, I have an original RS 2.7 (019) MFI pump that has a RS Diesels calibration tag. I understand that they are no longer trading ? Is this correct because the numbers on the tag would not work and I have tried the web with no success. Does any one have contact details or know where any of the pri...

OOPs sorry this was supposed to be a comment on wheeler dealer thread.
Thanks for posting the link

It well worth a look.The fact that the paint job was well done saved them a mint. They had SSIs on there (worth £1000) and never noticed. The bit about steeel wheels on what looks like a 76 was good and its the first time i heard that white froth in the oil is a head gasket !!!!!(not)also i thought ...

Have you considered a 3ltr mfi ?, its very do-able on a SC base but you need new pistons & cams .have the heads done and you are nearly there !!. Probable cost inc engine if you do yourself is about 10 to 12k depending on what you reuse from the donor.Much better bang per buck than a major rebui...
