1968 McLaren M8C

In 1970 McLaren made their M8 available to customers with a lower chassis-mounted wing compared to its predecessors.

The earlier 1969 cars had larger suspension-mounted wings which performed well but failed due to the suspension vibration. A rule change for 1970 meant that the M8C and all later versions would use a chassis-mounted wing.

Another change was the engine mounted which was unstressed and allowed for either a big-block Ford or Chevrolet engine.
