Silver GP IV

Hello group, I have some variations on my silver GP IV that have me
wondering, I bought the car in December, put it in storage at that
time. I have broke it out for the summer! My silver GP IV car has
the Carrera shocks, a 140 mph speedo, a Orange Mclaren decal on the
passenger side, it has what appears to be a experimental 8.8 axle, as
by the number ground into it XE-4010-A etched with a grinder,
instead of the E6SW number that is found on the 86 8.8's.The drive
shaft is larger than the one in my 85 5.0 Capri. It is almost 3 1/4
inches across. The engine and trans are the original ones, the engine
sounds like it has a mild cam, possibly a M-6250-E302 or M-6250-E303.
Does anyone with a GP IV, have any of these mods on their cars? I
know the records where destroyed on these cars. This has me
wondering. I believe the mods where done when it was at Mclaren.
Looking for input, Thanks David
