Paul,  Any suggestions on what I should do differently to run my 7 in a
   3 hours enduro, and if I survive and the car survives that, a 6 hours
   enduro later in the yr, that I don't do for regular SCCA 45 min
   race?     Thanks,  Dave D

   Endurance racing is all about testing, preparation and
   logistics. Can you find a track where you can run it
   flat out for three hours?

   Plumbing and electrical must be top quality.
   I would install electric fan cooled heat exchangers on
   the dif and tranny. Does it have a dry sump system? It needs one.
   Also you are going to need at least one complete set
   of all spare suspension and body parts. We lost a 24 hour in Daytona
   while leading the race by 19 laps because we did not have
   a spare rear A arm. Phil Hill driving.

   BTW It took GM years to get the V8 to last 24 hours
   on a Lemans lap programmed dyno. They ran the engine until it
   failed and then redesigned it, built a new one and started over.
   They wound up by compromising the HP and the redline.

   Might I ask what sanctioning group and level of preparation?

SCCA Improved Touring S class for good basic fun.  Very few mods allowed
as a starting class.  A number of races are available, including
enduros.  I might be the weakest link, but have wanted to drive in an
enduro.  Kinda like rain, the great HP equalizer.  Gotta use your head.
Building, although slowly an E Production 2nd gen, and wondering if I
should change to a basic GT to start with, for better support, altho
more $, and rules(UGH).   Dave D
