could use some paint maybe but who knows what the original color was, fantastic recreation though, and glad it wasn't built out of a mostly complete car like some may do. a 30's grill was a fantastic idea for racing, not only does it look fast and streamlined, its perfect for protecting the radiator from damage, likely the main reason for it being installed

Adam: A question: how critical is the 0.040" orifice in the jet at the bottom of the float bowl - the one that allows fuel to flow down to the main jets? I am asking because I was unsuccessful in removing the old jet - it broke off - and I also failed with an extractor to get it out. So - I resorted to drilling it out. I tapped the hole to 1/4-20 thread. I want to put a vented set screw in that tapped hole - with a 0.060" diameter hole in it. Seems to me that bigger is OK - the main jets coming afterward will do the actual metering of the fuel into the fuel/air mixture. What do you think?

There is more than just hole size to a jet. entrance into and out of the jet affect flow. I would get some brass allen head screws. Start around .040 and drill larger as necessary. Time yourself over a measured distance and redrill until it slows down. Then drill a new screw one size smaller and you're done. BTW, Holley carb jets are 1/4-32 if you wanted to use a Holley jet.

1.250 for the diameter of the rollers, .4375 for the diameter of the pin shaft. If you know the dimension for the roller pin head, it is important as the head of the pin rides the roller track and centers the shoes.

A wonderful group of volunteers I was privileged to work with. Without their over 4.5 year dedication, this never would have been possible. From the folks at the Indy Museum to the helpers at Mayflower, The painters at Project 203, Plymouth Plating Company, Mike Teske (lots of NLA GT40 parts), Ford Archives, my wonderful wife, late father, and many friends! Special recognition for Adam C. who was a consistent pillar of strength thru the whole project and kept the team inspired.

Abbey Panels at the start. FAV where you see cars in build. '64 race season with the initial prototype cars in action. There must have been a soundtrack to this promo film originally. Please, someone, put names to some of the faces. I spotted Wyer, and McLaren at the end. Who are the other drivers shown? Looks like this is found film that has been transferred to DVD by the kind of high street service offered by Timpsons or Max Spielmann, hence the dreadful wedding music and generic start/end. The original footage is historically important and should be in the hands of an archive which can properly conserve it. Adam, thanks for putting it up but more info please.

@@K2edg pardon me. Lola at Bromley for the first three at least. British did eventually make the 289/302 work with Weslake heads. Not an endurance motor before that. I think Wyer properly set the record straight in '68 and '69. Credit to the US for the '67 win, a fully US operation that one. I'd like to know more about Shelby's contribution to the programme early on. Does anyone know of a reliable reference source?

@@davidpalk5010 classic example of 'History is writen by the victor!' So the only Gt40 that wasn't built in the Uk was the J car or Mk4.........Shelby's biggest contribution was when aproached by Ford he got on the phone to Wyer (his mentor), John Wyer ran FAV and built all the Gt40's, they were then sent to race teams such as Shelby, Holman Moody, Alan Mann etc it was Just Shelby's race team that won with the cars. When Ken Miles died in the J Car that set a chain of events off than saw Shelby retire to South Africa in 67 and Ford pull out of Lemans. By that point John Wyer had purchased the FAV facility and has completly reworked the GT40 in to the wide body light weight mirage that won in 68-69 ironicly on a shoe string budget. And if you doubt how much John Wyer had to do with the success he then went on to take the Porsche 917 and do it again...... he turn it from a unstable killer to one of the most iconic race cars of all time.

@@K2edg Thanks for that insight. Is there a book that details this period and the various characters accurately? The thing that maddens me is the '66 photo-finish fable. Amon is on record as saying that he couldn't resist blipping the throttle for a last second sprint at the line that gave him and McLaren victory by fifty yards or so. Naughty boy! The ACO rule that's often quoted, about the McLaren/Amon car starting further back and therefore winning a dead heat finish due to having travelled further, is such nonsense. That rule might have come into play if it had been a dead heat, but it clearly wasn't. Amon won it because he crossed the line first - by an obvious margin ahead of the other two cars. Would you concur with that assessment? It seems that Shelby was a showman ready to take personal credit for as much as possible, regardless of the facts. Hopefully there is a reference work which sets the history straight. I'd love to know the title if there is. Also, the Henry Ford II's "Ford Total Performance" programme which inspired the whole thing is never mentioned. It's always the BS about a personal vendetta against Enzo Ferrari without any mention of the bigger story that Ford had set out to dominate every aspect of domestic and international motorsport regardless of the failed Ferrari deal which was just one aspect of the FTP programme. It's a fascinating story heavily obscured by popular myths. I will never watch Ford vs. Ferrari! If there isn't already a book, someone needs to write up "Ford Total Performance" as a historical reference work. Now that would be absolutely fascinating...
