The "engine will race" after highway use issue is the larger issue, I'd think, and you should start there.

As far as vacuum lines to the WUR and distributor, in both cases, the vacuum at low RPM...

I agree to start with BHR. If you were on I-70, then he is also likely close to you. Let me know if you need help arranging things, making calls, etc.

The tightening process for the front spindle nut can take some practice. Basically, tighten the nut with a wrench until tight and the hub won't spin easily by hand. Then, back off and re-tighten by...

My car has the Smart Racing rear sway bars and they attach with a bolt that replaces the rear toe bolt. The idea is you set the...

Said another way, helmets last for 10 years from SA date. The 2005's last until 2015, 2010s last until 2020.

It is best to try them on before you buy to make sure they are comfortable.

The spring plates show obvious signs of "cleaning up" where the old bushing was removed. So, I guess I can just lube the spring plate and put it back... since the bushings look so...

spring plate bushing sliding surface

When I took off my spring plates, the end cap pried off with the bushing inside it and the spring plate pried out, leaving the busing in the torsion bar tube.

I am under the impression that the...

I notice I said "minimum" control pressure as the WUR warms up, but I meant maximum. The CP starts low (rich) and warms up to a less rich/normal condition, which is a maximum CP.

Agree - you don't...

This is a 31mm hollow bar. The car is used only for club racing. I haven't taken the one out from the other side yet.

I have 23mm front, 31mm rear. If I replace, what would be the upgrade?

too much rust (torsion bar)

My rear torsion bar is rusty. I've used a wire brush to scrub off some of it, but there is still plenty more. What do you think?

It sounds like we have some missing info. How do you know the 2nd WUR is good?

Compression numbers are within 6% of each other (measured warm).

Next check will be to verify cam timing. On the possible check list are: try other headers; try another dyno.

cam timing for 930/10

Where can I find engine specs for the 930/10? I'm specifically after the cam timing spec but the full set would be nice as well.

The car is a 1981 911 SC euro.

Thanks.
