Hello!

I'm trying to find a webpage I visited some time back but didn't have the presence to bookmark. It was about a bloke who had fitted his 'bird engine with 955i parts. Anybody happen to have the address?

Thanks!

The guy is jim bush goes under the name of 955tbird here here is his website

I'm not sure I would do this conversion without serious brake and suspension mods, but its a very good read.

Hi faffi,

Here is another good read: Ascot Story

This engine upgrade is a mechanical upgrade (rather than an engineering upgrade - e.g. lathe), using T300 parts, and can be achieved without taking the engine out.

Ciao,
Geoff
:wink:

Thanks a lot for the links - I'm asking for my brother who wants more performance out of his 900 Daytona, so I think the chassis should handle it.

Thanks again!

Stalker is my name, stalking is my game :-D

I've visited the sport-touring forum and asked the same question, but when there was no reply I decided to try the friendly Calsssic and Cruiser people :razz: And it worked
