For the record I would have ignored this thread a long time ago but every time somone posts a reply I get an email.. I try to ignore them but when there are 5-8 emails at a time the curiosity prevails.


Pdw72s,

First you slam me, call me a liar and other less then honorable names but now your last post seems like you are defending me!

"Taking the top off reduces the weight of the car and allows the air turbulence to create a vacuum effect that actually pulls the car along permitting the higher top end.
As with hp ratings, Porsche was very conservative with their rev limits.
Part of it was a simple financial matter.
VDO had done a run of thousands of tachometers for Porsche based on early estimates. When the engineers informed management that the rev limits were in fact much higher they were simply told to design a limiting device (rotor) to keep the engines in the range of the already produced instruments to avoid the cost of designing a whole new batch of tachometers.
Most insiders know that the key to the rpms currently attained by the F1 engines (19K+) is simply due to removal of any rev limiting hardware."

Please stop this and do not post anything that may support my claims! I need all good adversaries that I can get! $100 per non believer is going to pay for my new tires and helmet!

TSUTER,

You posted part of my ebay ad on this thread..

"1973 "S" CAR, EARLY 1973 "S" ENGINE ... I DO KNOW THIS ENGINE RUNS AMAZINGLY STRONG!.. THE ENGINE PULLS VERY HARD PAST 8,500+ RPM WITH NO PROBLEM! (YES PAST THE HIGHEST 8,000 RPM MARK ON THE TACH!).. THE ENGINE DOES HAVE THE ORIGINAL MECHANICAL INJECTION (MFI) WITH 013 PUMP... THE SHORT GEARED (HILL CLIMB RATIOS) 915 TRANSMISSION SHIFTS GREAT AND HAS THE RS LIMITED SLIP !...

..... ASK SOME OF THE OTHER LUNATICS THAT HAVE BEEN ON SOME OF THE LOCAL PORSCHE AND "R" GROUPE EVENTS WITH ME... THEY HAVE SEEN THIS CAR RUN AT OVER 165 MPH! AND HAVE SEEN THIS CAR OUT RUN 930 TURBOS AND OTHER RS TYPE CARS 0-100+ MPH.. PLUS REMEMBER IT IS A TARGA!...


Thankyou!

In Law School I was taught that the evidence will speak for itself but that having credible eye witneeses that will testify is always a winning case!

PS,

To the idiot that said the LIMITED SLIP is not and RS limited slip..

The Limited Slip is standard in the Carrera RS (but an option in the T,E,S) so it is often referred to as an RS Limited Slip. This is also the case with the 380MM Steering wheel. Standard on the RS and commonly referred to as an RS Wheel but also offered as an option on the (T,E,S)... Other parts are also commonly referred to as RS (Plastic Tank, Duck Tail, Door Panels Etc) that could be ordered as an option on any 911!

If you had a special order Duck Tail off a 73 911T..

Try advertizing it as a 911T Duck Tail for $350... You probably will not get any response.

Then advertize the same tail as an RS Duck Tail for $3,500 and your phone will ring off the hook!
