QUOTE(URY914 @ Aug 4 2006, 08:14 AM)  QUOTE(john rogers @ Aug 4 2006, 07:58 AM) On Beck's car, if I remember correctly the air comes from underneath the front end. Someone either here or on Pelican posted a picture with the front and rear lids off and I was looking at it closely last year for any new ideas. Similar to the Wayne Baker #22 914 air feed. I won't think there would be much air under the car. But they are all running GT valances so it must be in the rules and they really don't keep air out from under there. With my deep spoiler I don't have much air under it. Just an idea, but the front grill appears to be wire mesh so the oil cooler could be placed further back fed by ducting. You could then connect the flexible ducts to this high pressure duct and divert some of the cool air before it goes through the oil cooler. I've seen this configuration used for brake cooling on sports prototypes. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) |

I think the high pitched exhaust sound comes from the single center collector from the headers. There is an old IMSA 911 that I race in Mexico that was built by Volker Bruckman that uses that type of exhaust and his son also uses it and both engines have a very high pitched exhaust note. I put one of those center collectors on my race car and the sound gave me a headache after a practice session , even with ear plugs and the helmet so I took it off.
