I would firstly like to introduce myself to this forum and offer my help with these "little cobras" and secondly just to let the owners of the SPF mk11`s know that there is now a very comprehensive owners manual available.This also contains an up to date wiring diagram.
For more on that you can contact me, Ross Henry at ross@riversideracers.com or Blas Costagli at SPFWiringDiagrams@Comcast.net
Furthermore we send out N/C to buyers of this manual ,service bulletins (at this point of time,10 in total) Blas can also personalize your manual with pics of your car, engine used, tranny used etc at n/c
secondly I have managed to get Spax to manufacture a run of adjustable shocks (28 different adjustments) which can be dialed in whilst in the car which I`m excited about.

This is SPFR0005 I purchased in January of last year. It has a 302 stroked to 354 cu in. and is topped with Weber carbs and backed by a TKO600 transmission. Ross and Blas did a great job on the owners manual and it is a "must own" for any Mk II owner. I'm looking forward to the posts in a forum devoted to these special cars. Gene  Yes |

Interesting colour scheme Savagej. I like it a lot. The 354 a nice choice as well.
I am glad you like the manual. Interesting concept having it on a thumb drive? The new range of cars, both FIA and roadsters,will receive one as they are now built into the price from the factory.
The next upgrade for the roadsters is the option to have footbox fresh air cooling fitted by the factory or a kit for those cars supplied when this option was not available.
The Fia`s always have this fitted as standard, but non adjustable and will never have an adjustable offered.
The last option now offered, on new FIA`S ordered, is a heater. This can only be fitted by the factory and will not be a fit it yourself option.ie ordered at time of purchase
Best

Viking Blue. From what I've read, it is the 1964 team color. In 1965 they switched to Guardsman blue.
Here's a question for debate. What's the difference between Viking Blue and Princess blue? Same color, different names? Or two different colors? Then different in what way? Gene
