The engine, rebuilt by renowned expert Dick Elverude only one race ago, displaces 1,991cc and the correct factory mechanical Bosch fuel injection and produces an estimated 225bhp, more than enough to propel this relatively light car at impressive speeds. The original 901 type gearbox has been uprated to the tougher 915 type, fitted with close ratio gears and steel synchro rings plus ZF limited slip differential.

The dashboard is dominated by a 10,000rpm rev. counter alongside the standard 911 oil pressure, temperarture and level gauges plus two supplementary gauges for fuel pressure and volts mounted below the dash. The rest of the interior has been stripped for competition with lightweight door panels fitted, Perspex quarterlights and rear side windows. It features a full rollcage, a high back racing seat and racing seatbelts. An ATL fuel cell and fire extinguisher system are fitted.
