Lightweight Body |
|
The Light Weight Body option is a light weight version of the standard road car Bodyshell.The overall Laminate thickness is reduced and extra reinforcements are added in areas of high stress or where additional rigidity is required.The weight saving over the standard road car bodyshell is approximately 30%.This option is recommended for competition use only. |
Single Vent Front Hatch
This option replaces the standard twin nostril front hatch panel with a single vent panel as per the original GT40 Gulf racing cars.The main advantage of the single vent front hatch is improved cooling due to a much larger exit opening for the hot air from the Radiator.An added bonus is how easy a racing stripe can be applied to the hatch panel.
Gulf Style Rear Wheel Arches
The Gulf style rear wheel arches are supplied as separate mouldings which are bonded into the standard rear body section increasing the overall width by 2" per side.This allows the use of 12" wide rear wheels as per the original Gulf racing GT40's.Mouldings are also provided to flare the ends of the side sills into the new wheel arches.
Periscope Scoops
These are the rear scoops located on top of the rear body section either side of the engine top vent panel on MK2 GT40's.They can be used to supply cooling air to engine and gearbox oil coolers or just for show.Although not fitted to original MK1 GT40's some customers seem to like the look of them.
|
Rose Jointed Suspension |
|
This option replaces the standard rubber suspension bushes with high quality Rose Joint rod ends.Advantages include a more adjustable suspension system and improved handling.Due to the high wear rate this option is recommended for racing use only. |
|
Performance Shock Absorbers |
|
These are an uprated all Aluminium version of the standard road car units which result in a reduced unsprung weight.They are CNC machined from billet and the valving is adjustable in both directions. |
|
Vented Rear Brake Discs |
|
The first option when looking for more stopping power.These discs are a larger diameter than standard and are also ventilated to dissipate heat.A spaced Caliper must be used with these discs. |
4 Pot Aluminium Brake Caliper Kit
These provide the ultimate in stopping power.The calipers are all Aluminium with 4 Stainless steel pistons.Each Caliper weighs just 2 1/2 lbs which reduces unsprung weight.The kit is suppiled complete with all brackets, bolts, hoses, adaptors and fixings making installation an easy process.Brake pads are available in a range of grades including road, fast road and race.This option is highly recommended for fast road and racing use.
|
Bias Adjustable Pedal Box |
|
The Bias adjustable pedal box splits the front and rear brake circuits and allows the balance of the braking between front and rear to be adjusted to suit individuals and track conditions.This option is highly recommended when fitting Aluminium 4 pot calipers |
Knock On Wheels
This option consists of CNC machined wheel adaptors which are attached to the standard wheel hubs by drive pins converting them into a knock on type fitting.The wheels are driven by the pins and secured to the hub by a centre lock 3 eared wheel spinner.Wheels are one piece look and available in Halibrand and BRM styles and in a range of diameters, widths and colours.This option represents the ultimate in replication.
Weber Carb Kit
Nothing looks better than a set of Webers when you look through the rear window of a GT40 replica.The kit includes Carbs, inlet maniflold, air horns, throttle linkage & fuel hoses.
|
1 3/4" Dia. Exhaust System |
|
This system is required when large valved heads with larger exhaust ports like Edelbrock and SVO GT40 cylinder heads are fitted to the engine.There is little point in spending money on expensive cylinder heads with larger exhaust ports to simple block the ports with pipes that are too small.This system is a full cross over as per the original GT40 and sounds like the real thing. |
6 Speed Gearbox
This is a 6 speed straight cut close ratio gearbox featuring a limited slip diff.Externally it is identical to the Renault UN1 gearbox except for a small spacer on the rear cover.Torque capacity is more than double that of the standard Renault gearbox and 5th gear overhang is eliminated.The shift pattern features a double ' H '.A gear kit is also available to allow customers to convert their existing 5 speed gearboxs to 6 speed specification.Highly recommended for competition use.
Remote Oil Cooler
The cooler is mounted behind the lower rear body section air intake on the lefthand side and is connected via a sandwich plate between the oil filter and engine block.Provides additional cooling for the oil system.
Race Seat
This is an improved version of the standard replica seat and is specifically for competition use.Features include a taller headrest for added Helmet support, higher sides for increased lateral support and holes to suit a 5 point harness.Fabrics can be Leather, Leatherette or Alcantara.
Door Top Blister
Known as the Gurney Bubble this can be fitted to the drivers side door top to give additional headroom clearance for a crash helmet.
