914World.com _ FS/WTB: 914 Parts _ Newly Rebuilt #GA 2056 EngineSOLD
Posted by: Larmo63 May 26 2015, 07:26 PM
I have decided to build a 2.7 911 motor for my car, so this is for sale: 2056 Type IV engine with all the right stuff. Balanced, align bored, lightened flywheel. Has carb cam, rebuilt heads, I have full specs available and receipts. Built by European Motor Works in SoCal. Weber carbs are 40s, powder coated tin, rebuilt alternator. New blue coil on it now. Pick up in SoCal or I can help with delivery within reason. I can also palletize, you arrange drop shipper. $4500/offers?

You gonna try to get your convex mirror back then?

What so the 2.0 not good enough anymore . My 2.0 keeps up with all the sixies but I have a turbo . What's the hp on the 2056.

Larmo is just beginning his slide down the slippery slope of the desire for more and more power. His psychosis has evolved over time and is illustrated by his recent addition of GT headlight tidbits to his chameleon-like car.......
My experience with this character is that he will succeed in this latest puruit / over an unknown period of time....

Forrest, I agree with your slippery slope diagnosis. Once Lawrence got the WCR helmet and goggles, it was all downhill. 
Posted by: euro911 May 27 2015, 11:55 AM
Well, it's apparent why he needs a '6' now - those European train bumpers aren't that aerodynamic and just add to the drag coefficient:

You can't have those lights on a narrow bodied car. I'll start looking for fender flares .
Posted by: Larmo63 May 27 2015, 05:47 PM
The Cibies are off of the car for now.

Hmmmmmmmm......Interesting, and so close
Posted by: Blue6 May 27 2015, 10:19 PM
Lawrence, I think the lights look great, but I drive a slant nose and you know what that says about my tastes....
Posted by: 914bub May 27 2015, 10:52 PM
I remember when he talked about selling. I gotta get out with you guys before I contemplate the same.

My new engine build is going in today or tomorrow depending on fuel pump delivery to my place in Laguna. I will give our pal Larmo a ride thereafter so he can drop his pipe dream of a big 6 for the time being (and his satisfaction with his 1.7) and go ahead and install his mighty four.
this all started with the installation of the roundels, the Pegasus decals, and the wearing of great domed helmets and bug-eyed goggles. We should all take heed if this is what happens to an otherwise normal person, once smitten with a 914....
Sidebar: Mark: There is an infinitely small error in your assumptions that have you arriving at the wrong conclusions... Larmo can shed some light on this once he reinstalls his searchlights.

Lawrence - you haven't even driven your car with the 2056 in it? 
You're missing out on a lot of fun 
Posted by: colingreene May 28 2015, 11:24 PM
Hes been in mine with a 2258 so..
I still think hes caught a case of mild retardation and wont listen to me.
What else is new.
Posted by: jim_hoyland May 29 2015, 09:38 AM
You didn't have the 2056 at WCR ?

he was running his bone-stock 1.7 as was I at the WCR. Today is the day for my new build to go in. Collin: I may need to hire you for a lesson in carb tuning and what to (and not to) do....
Also, any referrals to a source for a cool catch-can would be appreciated.

Every time I see that pic it makes me smile . Not because lamo68 it's because my car is in the background and he's making it famous.

I really think its not officially your 914 till you have been in the engine bay
Posted by: Dion May 30 2015, 11:08 AM
Nothing wrong with a Cibie's and a 2056!
Gruppe B fantasy.
Good luck with the sale. 2056 very fun.
Buy Lawrence's motor.

Forrest, hard at work…..
So is this how the 914 madness ends? You end up in your engineless shell making strange motor-like noises until they come to take you away?
Posted by: MoreRust Jun 12 2015, 09:20 AM
I sent you a PM...probably interested, would like some details.

I was talking to some people in the know in So Cal, European Motor works is the place to get your type 4 built.
No affiliation, just thought I would mention it.
You should post receipts.
