I just recvd my copy of Adrian's 911 book. Wow! What a thorough resource for the 964's. I can already tell it will be the 'bible' for my car. I stayed up late skimming through the book and was excited to find my recently acquired RS America featured in the book (page 514 at the bottom and page 515 at the top). I know its the same RSA because the photo credit is the name of the owner prior to the guy I bought it from. I also have copies of these same photos.
Now I just need to convince my buddy that now has the supercharged engine featured in the photo in Adrian's book to sell it back to me so I can reunite it with the RSA...

The photo credit is Zane Dobson. I had met him a few times about 10 years ago in Oklahoma City. He was the membership or President of the War Bonnet PCA Region at the time. Spoke to him a few times at a couple Autocrosses, then ran into him up at Brainerd International at a Club Race. Came up there to MN a few times with a couple other guys out of Oklahoma, guy named Brooke Van Horne who had a GT1R/S 930 Turbo, and another guy that drove a white RSA that was progressed to C class. I think Brooke ended buying that car, since last year I saw him driving a white C-Class RSA...
My actual car is also in the book, on page 603, and like you, credit goes to the previous owner.

Sorry, I'm really late to this post, but I've been busy playing with wine for the last 10-years. I know it'd be very difficult, but if you ever wanted to try to have a matching numbers car again - Dr. Geary Isbell bought the stock RS America engine. It was probably modified, and supercharged, but likely only reduced piston compression ratio and insurance items to make it stronger. They built a crazy orange racecar from my 964 C4 (which I rolled at Hallett), but I don't think he races any longer.
