the guys at Speedwerks could never leave well enough alone, and insisted on custom making everything. So while the parts may/may not have come from a kit, there is nearly a 100% chance that Speekwerks modified them substantially. Again, if this is Fred Benedict's old car, there is not much on there that are 'purchased parts'. Speedwerks had been known to make their own fiberglass parts just to fit their need, even if there was something on the market that already did the job.
I have Fred's old 915 transmission with Vellios side shift conversion in Papa Smurf...if you could have only seen the custom work done in that trans...Some of the work is great (making the vellios shift perfectly), but some of the work is part of the reason it failed on the second day out... just sayin'.... |
