Interesting alternator setup driving the alt from the transmission output shaft. Car has to be in motion for it to work.

What is the Zuffenhaulin’ cooling fan conversion?

Call me a neophyte but I am completely unfamiliar with this setup.

Similar to the old 917 top down cooling fan.
All the cooling tins are gone, but the idea is that its a race car and always moving fast. The big fan sucks air down and forces it directly over the cylinders. It looks to be an electric fan, so its spin is not related to engine speed.

915 trans ?
Don't think so.

Lots of moments looking at the photos. Like sway bar set ups.

915 trans is 'additional'
