81SC

Windsor289, Your post got me thinking about the Murray era in F1, that I had watched a long time ago. I found this on Youtube, I could listen to Gordon talk for hours. Truly an inspiring person.

Thanks for posting this link, I have watched the 4 episodes now & really enjoyed them. The guy doing the rear suspension needs to learn to listen when Gordon wants to talk.

I have raced Gokarts on & off for 30 years & Mr Sheen was always the go to product for cleaning & sprucing up the kart, whether at the track or in the garage. There are many different types of coatings on a kart (e.g: powder coat, anodising, chrome, decals, plastic, aluminium & painted areas) & have never had a problem with using Mr Sheen.

If the site you found is not the Karting Australia site, it is a good resource worth checking out. http://www.karting.net.au You will definitely want to align yourself with a kart shop that you are comfortable with. Per Lee's comment, the Australian made Arrow kart chassis is a good starting point. Once you set your budget, try and buy the latest model chassis you can afford. If you can fit a European made kart into your budget, a Tony Kart is as good as anything out there. For me there are 2 things you want to check first on a second hand frame, how much metal is worn off of the lower frame rails at the waist section & if the frame has a twist in it. There is a simple check for frame twist, ask your local kart mechanic to show you. Good luck & enjoy yourselves, but just remember that once you reach a certain level of competitiveness, you will be throwing a lot of money at this to reach the next level.

Harry is the man for these. This is what mine looked like.

These are the only numbers I have seen. https://www.tradeuniquecars.com.au/news/1710/big-bucks-at-gosford-pickles-auction?utm_source=tuc_newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_content=article1_image&utm_campaign=TUC: 01.11.17&utm_term=list_uniquecars_newsletter

Finally another episode, these guys crack me up .

Hey D-banger, any chance you can share what the part number is of the Dansk muffler? It is usually just below the Dansk insignia on the muffler. Does your muffler have the 80mm outlet pipe? I am looking at a couple of mufflers online, so I'm looking for some confirmation as to fitment. TIA.

The cylinders appear to be Mahle/Nikasil because of the 11 cooling fins. Usually the 3.0 Mahle cylinders have 11 fins & the KS/Alusil cylinders have 10 fins.

Regarding the quality of the metric cv bolts discussed above, proper name of these bolts is socket head cap screw, a generic name is Allen head bolt. If you buy a good quality metric socket head cap screw from a manufacturer like Unbrako, usually the grade of these cap screws are 12.9. But there are some low quality socket head cap screws on the market, that have a grade of 8.8. The grade is always stamped into the head of a quality cap screw. Personally, I would not use anything but a 12.9 grade cap screw in this application.

Wanted to buy, I'm looking for the service centre booklet that is in the owners manual folder. My understanding is that I would require Edition No. 16 for the 1981 model year 911SC, see photos for what I'm looking for. TIA.
