which is faster?
is a 712m noticably slower at accellerating than a 710m? i know the 712 has a lower geared tranny so its top speed is like 5 mph less, but i've only ever driven a 712amb and this 710m, never a 712m.
1973 710m

The 710 accellerates faster and has a 10mph higher top speed.
The average 712 will go 55-60mph(screaming), while a good running 710 can exceed 70mph, That does not however mean it is safe to sustain.
At high rpm's the carbs cannot supply enough fuel resulting in melted pistons.
This is where injection changes the curve..................................

whoa... a gr8 reason to go efi. art here drove jake raby's efi pinz and says my normal pinz runs just as good, but i'm seeing it really does not like cold. i'd also like to not have to bother with the elevation problem.

well maybe i dont really want a 712 then. but isn't there an updated tranny available that has a gear for that extra top speed?

That doesn't sound good considering I'm thinking of traversing the Haute Atlas in winter - and will definitely be above the snow line for part of that journey ! Is this a significant Pinz problem ?

Hmmm, we haven't got anything in Australia over 7300 feet..... other than planes etc!My injection computer compensates beyond 10,000 ft

ka, my 712 doesn't really "feel" slower than my 710 from a standing start.
I can leave the 712 in second gear to get rolling, like at a traffic light. The 710 wants 1st gear. Anything else requires lots (comparitively speaking) of clutch and lots of accelerator.
The 712 likes cruising at around 54-55 mph. It does not like to accelerate down hills, meaning my foot on the pedal hasn't changed, but gravity has set in and when it hits 62-63 mph the 4500 rpm light comes on.
The 710 just hums along and possibly because of the difference in weight doesn't pickup quite as much speed coming of a hill. No 4500 rpm problems there which is starting to make me wonder about the module. The 710 doesn't mind cruising at 55-58 mph.
My speed figures about cruising are based on where it runs without any obvious effort from my right foot to move it along faster.
It does seem that I go through the gears much quicker from a standing start in the 712 than the 710. To me that's the difference in the gearing.
Hope that adds to what you wanted to know.

In crossing the Haute Atlas it's quite possible, within the space of 24 hours, to go from sea level and moderate temperatures in Northern Morocco, to over 9,000 feet and snow, then descend down to around 2,000 feet and the heat of the approaches to the Saharan desert. In the desert nights temperatures drop to well below freezing. Is the Pinz really that sensitive to jet size ?

Well, here in FL, I've driven to a few feet below sea level (in fresh water) to a whopping 190 ft above while traveling across the Sunshine Skyway Bridge and 345 ft above sea level at Britton Hill, the highest point in FL.
So how much silicon and liquid plastic is required to seal up that EFI for U-Boat use?
