Sorry I have not posted nor replied to threads recently but needless to say, we have been slammed.
We are hosting 25 or more 356 guys with the Southern 356 owners group tomorrow but of course all 914 guys are invited as well. Shop tour, good chat, etc. Rain or shine (that is a joke for all of you who know that there is no rain ever anymore here in the northern part of Georgia!!!!0

Sounds like fun George! Wish I could make it. I'd love to show off my latest 356/912 cylinder head developments. I have two pairs that I just finished up and are ready for shipping. Both are twin plugged with port work. Within a month all of my modified 356/912 ports will be CNC'd. And I will also be offering a B head conversion. We start with a B head and convert it to 912 specs, fully CNC'd intakes, exhaust ports and chambers. Stunning! I'll let you know when it's available.
Have fun!

Would love to see it! Was driving in my silver cab today and remarking at how much faster than my red roadster! Both have fresh engines. Maybe we could do an engine?

And I have an idea....

And Len knows what we have already done with the 356 engine.

Wish I could come!
George, You should have told me about this last night!

You are WAY too young to hang out with a bunch of old guys. (you would be bored to death!) Already the guys working for me are complaining about having to be here! When we have the boxster fest we will invite you young man.

George,

Thank you had a great time there. It was strange to see 3 904's there,
Your's, Chuck Becks and Larry Mortimers. But you gota love those 356's
there also.
