During the design stage we came across that article from Gute Fahrt.
I got the impression that Dr Gerolds car was powered by "that" type of engine ,By "that" I mean cast cam boxes( that was the bit that nearly made us give up!)
For the amount of machining, it was much more economical to do the job the way we did.
We also noticed that they cut out the barrel registers and welded in new peices to change the stud spacing.We just redrilled the heads and cambox to accommodate the difference.
Its funny seeing all the different 911 headed motors and we all seem to use the same belt setup.

Crank......Seems that too many people throw away too many stock parts to replace them with parts of an inferior quality.
