I think PC gets th' Gold Star. If th' IDL3 Webers didn't date it, th' diffy was a dead giveaway.

You could look in the rear-view mirror an' watch th' throttle linkage woggle around as you cruised down th' road, too! :laugh:

IIRC the Weber trips were capable of 600 CFM apiece(!) at W.O.T...

Some SERIOUS drop in cabin pressure. Ear clearing drop. :laugh: :jester:

Yup, Miura engine and transaxle. First ever transverse mount V12.

Always had a hankering for a set of those Webers to use on a made up manifold for my 3.4 in the Jamaican, but having carbs that don't allow you to keep the bonnet on probably isn't the most practical idea. The carbs were shared with the Porsche 911.

Here's another piece of eye candy...sixteen exhaust pipes out of a straight eight...I would guess one for each exhaust valve.
