Would anyone have a 250 kph speedo to suit a 1972 car?

I navigated ( and drove one stage ) in 2 BRX on the 1990 West Cork Rally Historic Section. Brian Powley won it outright in 1989 and 1990.

The best ever 911 probably, Carrera 6 engine on open megas.

Simsheim takes three very Happy Hours. It’s brilliant

I wonder what happened to the Blue Almeras 911 in the seconds after that Photo? It looks like it might have rolled before the photo was taken as well.

I’ve two relevant memories — traveling from Galway to Dublin in an IMP where we could top up the oilman water from the backseat on the move by lifting the rear panel. — My Army days on a Friday where duties including starting the Coventry Climax Fire Pump. Soldiers being soldiers this was often done...

Very happy memories of that event. We drove over from Cork and stayed nearby in Moore Place Hotel in Aspley Guise. Used walk to the Indian Restaurant Jalouri in Woburn Sands.

There were great bargains there , some I still have !!

Anybody remember when the last one was , 2007/8 ?

It’s relatively easy, and quite common to rebuild any mfi pump to suit a particular T, E, or S engine. The late Robert Sharpe used engrave his work by crossing out the 09 say and replacing it with 014 as needed to show the modifications.

RS Diesels was his company I think.

Plus 1 for PCGB. Your statement re them not knowing about older cars is false news.

I’m fitting an MSD Ignition, Coil and Tach to my 1973 2.7 RS engined 911. instructions say not to use the Porsche standard ( copper core ) leads. Why is this, and does it really matter much ?

Do other people not just pour it down the drain, or at the base of their compost heaps ?

As Andy said above they are fragile and I’m fed up curing the dents. Also, I used believe 72:S had an Ally lid but only the very very early ones prior to November 1971 had them. When I bought my Ally lid from Poland in 2013 it was the same price as a new steel one from Porsche. Ninemeister weighed b...

Gunter Chrzanowski is still alive and trading /:racing I bought my 993:RSR from him in 2005. I’ve contact details if you need them.

I’ve also got a reproduction aluminium engine lid on my 2.4 s which is for sale as I’m replacing it with a steel one.

I’ve a replica one that I’m replacing on my 2.4S with a steel. Phone Colin at Ninemeister if you’re interested.

It shouldn’t be about Brits winning or loosing, Motorsport is greater than that. The FIA should award the Championship to both of them, it’s been done before on Professional Masterchef. !

Diesel Cayenne is your answer.
