the 40mm 12 sec black '67.. Dave Conklin thread....

Ha - I did the same on my TTDs - narrowed 7s to 4 on fronts but needed to narrow the beam 3 to get them to sit right.
You need to narrow the beam Dave?

What size and lug pattern are the Americans?
Yeah, Porsche bolt-circle. 7” in the rear and custom narrowed 4” in front.
Cornpanzer:
Yeah, narrowed the beam 2 1/2” before you could buy narrowed beams. Probably 1995.

So...Been a stressful week. Had some time to kill this afternoon and decided to stop at my buddies shop and look at the 67. One thing led to another and before long I had jerked off the turbo and carburetor. Polo shirt, khakis and my brown dress shoes, standing in the back seat floor removing all the turbo stuff for the last time.
Next thing to do is pull the motor. I may wear more suitable clothes for that.
My friend has an old Vertex magneto. Hmmmm...

Don't you just hate getting your nice clothes all dirty with what you thought would be a 5-minute wipedown? I'm excited to see some progress though, it's always good to get something done, no matter how small.

Can’t wait to see it back out Dave!! No more stinger distributor?
