thedawnpatrol Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 HI C8 FAT I might be able to help you with a wheel & tyre, in fact 4! I have a front axle also. I will check Wednesday eve when I go up to my workshop, I know that they all came off a C8 FAT and the wheels/tyres are bigger than my 900x16's Cheers Jules Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

john fox Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 interesting fraemwork around the engine bay - is that unique to the FAT as opposed to the GS? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikemids Posted September 6, 2008 Share Posted September 6, 2008 Fascinating pictures... great help to some of us with restoration etc... can i ask a stupid question, what is this object in the photo, i dont have one on my C8 and havent seen it before? And before anyone berates me about manuals etc...i've ordered them 2 weeks ago and still waiting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick W Posted September 6, 2008 Share Posted September 6, 2008 Its an Autovac unit Mike. Kind of like an early fuel pump, works by suction created by the engine unless someone corrects me. The earlier CS8's FATs CDSWs etc had these. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
