617a whats the difference
I find the hand throttle most useful for winter morning cold starts. But I also use it if jump starting others or winching.
priceless info !!

For my info, was the 617A originally intercooled? If not, should it be now?
nope, the 617a was never factory intercooled on production models mercedes...
the c111 i think was, but it needed to be !!

hi huss looks like you and Simon have a similar set up
my set up looks different as on the top of the rocker box
i have a vacuum valve for the kick down that connects to the green and red thing
in pic cox4 from eddie then that connects to a vacuum valve on
the ALTO gearbox to change gear + i have extra linkage rods to operate
it all YOU TWO HAVE IT EASY
the clamp is not necessary but if there is a correct part (may as well fit one)
you are 100% right about the snorkel nice cold air its just i dont like the idea
of driling a big hole in the wing to fit it on
