Urgent damper advice needed!

Long story short - I'm collecting the 944 rally car from my mechanic tomorrow to take on a rally.

The car is currently on koni yellow dampers but the fronts have a tiny bit of play in them so we have bought a pair of Bilstein B6 inserts to go on.

However...

Just heard that the Billies won't go into either the koni housings or the stock (new) Sachs dampers that we have to hand.

We have zero time on this now - is there any magic fix to get the Billies on usin either the koni or sachs stock housings?

Thanks,

Ben
 
Unfortunately not. I can suggest someone in Rotherham to rebuild them when you return, though.
 
I replaced Koni adjustable dampers on my car not so long ago. Can't tell you much about the kit taken off other than it is pretty new and was too soft for track use. It's just sitting in my garage. If it can be of use, give me a shout. Based in Hertfordshire.

Thanks gents. We've just run up against time now, not going to be able to do anything about it so I'll run on the Konis and hope they hold up.

Thanks anyway to all.
