A slow start


Pieces coming off the puzzle


Might that be clean metal I see?

Is that what's under all that stuff?!!
Take your time re-installing the injectors. With the holders its very easy to get them a little off and cause a leek. I'm still woking on one of mine.
Look forward to seeing more pics!

Pull the top tin off and clean under there so the cylinders are clean of all the grime.

40 Dells? enjoy the mpg.

36 Dells would've been better but they're also not as easy to find. FI is better but you can't beat the sound of carb induction!

Well, it's been slow going. But I made it THIS far today. Had to work over the weekend so I didn't get to pick up more parts until this morning. Later this week I'll have to install the new fuel pump and the linkage. Hopefully this weekend I can order the Mallory dizzy. Then I get it all running... play with it for about a month. Then order new pistons, rings, cylinders... drop the engine.. clean and por15 everything that needs it. Then start stripping the paint and bondo... weeee then it will be a REAL 914.

I put a decal with the club url on the back... you know, so everyone in my garage can see it.
