I Have Camshaft from One of the 917s
In Response To: two 911 became 917 and it was great fun... ()

I have camshaft from one of the 917s . . . supposedly from the 917 that won Daytona 24 hours in 1970 and was crashed during the filiming of Le Man. Of course, I am not certain of the provenance; I am certain that it is from one of the Porsche 917s [as one old Porsche mechanics said to me at a vintage event, when I showed him the camshaft, "What else could it be from?"]. Maybe I should sent to TAG-Heuer to take the measurements for the flat 12 model of the Monaco? Indeed, this would be the ultimate development of the Monaco, right?
