I remember an article where the Dr. compared the 916 to a 3.2 (I think it was a 3.2?) converted six with flares. I really liked the write-up showing how much the 916 was truly a pre-production car. Would be really neat to see a good video of a 916 up on a rack, driving impressions etc.

Nice pictures!

I crawled around Brutus and another 916 at the local Luftkekuht. The 916 trans, heat exchangers and welded roof are the biggest differences. Curious what size the heat exchanger's were and how many did they make?
