Welcomw Woody,
You certainly picked the right spot to get excellent help for the restoration of an early 911. I've heard about Russian tanks masquerading as Porsches to escape the "New Democracy".Who knows what else you'll find under the skin. Mrdi |

6-inch Fuchs will take 205 tires. 7-inch Fuchs will take 225 tires, but you may need to curl in the lip that runs along the inside edge of the front fender.
See this thread for a picture of the add'l lights: They're more commonly mounted on the hood, though. http://www.pelicanparts.com/ultimate/Forum3/HTML/004919.html Welcome to the 911 jungle... ------------------ Jack Olsen 1973 911 T (3.6) sunroof coupe |

Woody, you don't need lead substitute in Porsche engines. The seats are plenty hard enough. If you have stock flares and stock 15x6 wheels, you can run 205/60/15s no problem. Some people run 215/60 rear and 195/65 up front. You can get away with this if it is not lowered too much. And save those lights. They are worth a few bucks.
