I have done exhaustive searches with Google and did not find much. Does any have any links,pics or info on the engine bay. I am trying to understand how the oil tank is plumbed. I know the two connections on the left of tank but not the single one on right. Any help would be appreciated/ I will be soon posting pics of my progress so far.

Thanks Mike,
I found that one, that is a later version of the car. I believe Tamiya's is the 79 car. I think there were b and c versions and Tamiya did the original version.

As far as I can remember you can model the early '80 car or the '79 car from the Tamiya kit. Later in 1980 the sidepods changed quite a bit but everything else was pretty much the same, then in '81 (the 'C' car in those pictures) the aero changed quite a bit because of regulations - the rear wing moved forwards and the nose became rounded with a seperate wing, also the skirts changed from fully sliding to fixed.

Always a good source of photos are the Autocourse series of books.
