928 intake spyder not unlike Countach prototype
 
I was perusing Bring a Trailer when I saw this Lamborghini Countach fuel injected prototype. In reading the story and looking at the photos I noticed that the fuel injection spyder must be a Bosch design because it really looks a lot like the 928's intake spyder. I guess this design was rather state of the art in it's day if supercars like the Countach had similar fuel injection manifolds.

Countach fuel injection
 
I believe a Jas Rarewala, was the US importer for Lamborghini at one time and because of emissions, he came up with the idea of using 2 BMW 6 cylinder systems on the V-12. The manifold was walled in the middle to conceal this. Pretty darn ingenious of him. Later he had a dispute with them as they tried to disregard his distribution contracts.

Definitely looks like a Bosch system; I see two fuel distributors, two vacuum limiters, two aux air regulators, etc. Very cool!

Probably is a Bosch system, similar to early mid seventies Bosch mechanical injection fitted to Aston DBS V8,s...,
