I cant help with US sourced parts but if you are really in a fix I can make Euro enquiries to people I know who run 962s.

Is it going to end up a street car?

David Boutelle

on way that would be no fun ! if it was a street car it would never get out of 3rd gear .

David,

You might want to try the Zimmermans at DP Motorsports, http://www.dp-motorsport.de/
They are some of the best in the world. They built the body for the street converted 962 and were behind the design of the Kremer K3 935 body and the Alzen 996 among other

Man, I'd love to have that car as my daily driver! Wow!

Well, that is until I had to go over a speed bump, driveway, pothole, etc.

I remapped a pair of 962s for the Historic Le-Mans a little while ago. The thought of driving one of those on the road is enough to encourage a trouser accident !
Maybe the road version has been put into the mundane power rating.

i dont know the horse power of this car yet . but the turbo is the size of a dinner plate and at full boost the miles per gal. must be some thing like 2 or 3 mpg. and with the cost of high octane fuel ? no way would i want a street car like this ! it was made for the track and thats were it should be ! would you like to do 65 mph or 200 mph ? me 200 + sounds damn good thats when i would like to wet my self .
