Okay I have come to a point where I am in a delima. I have a '73 2.0 car with the appearance group package that has had all 911 suspension upgrades and I will also be adding GT flares. I was originally going to put a 2.8 IV in it with about 225 horses but now am considering a subie engine putting out about 325 horses or more. I have always been a purist but there is something to be said for smoking the competion through the curves and also being able to dust the muscle cars down the highways. I can get into the 2.8 for around 7000.00 for motor and tranny minus installation. I can get into the subie for about 4800.00 minus installation.
What are the thoughts and opinions out there along with the pros and cons for each. All input would be greatly appreciated. Donald (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) |

Serious question.
How old are you? I have found that the older I am getting the more I am liking the original design just for the fact that its original...and old. I like keeping an old engine running..and still getting better mileage than the tuner boys... But, if you are in an age group that like subies, you have clubs you can have fun with, then go for the suby... Its really all about what you will do with it once its done.. Rich |
