DDK - Die Deutschen Klassiker

Fantastic, going really well! Especially considering the cracked exhaust...

Triffic Keith- and you sold me your old exhaust because it was “too noisy”!

That's all induction noise from the Webers. Noise test at 4000rpm showed exactly 100db.

Wouldn’t like to loose it where those trees are !

Get to Shelsley Walsh!

sounds brilliant, what engine set up do you have in there? I am thinking of getting the type4 in my 912E uprated, likely Weber 44IDF's 96x71s and a better cam.

71mm AA forged crank and H-beam rods, 96mm AA Biral cylinders, JE forged pistons, reworked 1.8 heads with 42 x 38 valves, Webcam 86a camshaft, dual 44 IDF Webers, SSI heater/headers, Vintage Speed S/S silencer. Makes 130bhp. Very drivable combination and simple to do. My plans were to build a bigger engine (82 x 96), but am now inclined to change the cam and heads, and bump the compression.

Bit like my set-up. The parts are cheaper than P parts and quite a few places can build them

They look really great - what size did you go for and what's the finish?
Are they going to replace your Torq Thrusts?

Only for hillclimbs - they're 6 x 15 with 195/55 x 15 Toyo Proxes R888R. Silver painted centres with diamond-cut rims. I'll retain the TTs with Dunlops for the road.

And enjoyable afternoon spent over at Snetterton discussing potential business with a friend who runs the Britcar Endurance Series
