Stan,
I think those may be MSDS headers. The reason I think that is that they are straight out the back past the engine. If they will be in the way of the installation of the lower bell housing, they are MSDS for sure.

I certainly don't recognise them. Due to the lack of headers for RHD cars we have here, special headers are virtually unseen, except for a couple of race cars.

For the 16v cars, I know of one person in the UK who used the US 32v 85/86 headers with good results.

This keeps getting more amazing.
Great work
and a real inspiration
to those of us who tend to go in the garage and merely stare at the pile of parts ha ha.

Is there any hope that someone will make the front belly pans for the 928S??

Looking good Stan. Very nice and a Euro as well.

Insofar as an S bellypan is concerned, anyone with a sheet metal brake and decent fab skills could make one.

Swapped out the 18 snow tires for the factory chromes that came with the car fitted new Continental DSW 06 the newest version of the tire in 225-50/16 all the way around the car has the wider track in the rear ,
the tires are very nice, smooth, quiet and sticky.
Pictures to follow.
I am driving this car just about everyday,
it so much more fun to drive and easy to live with with the auto ,
as compared to my 85 Euro 5 speed.( this was a 1st to 3rd then stop car, this gets old fast)
and with the 2.73 gears it moves out pretty fast.
Roger must be onto something here about that lazy autobox.... three cheers for P R N D 3 2
