Hi All -
Got a line on a rebuilt 2.7 out of a 1977 911S. It is 100% complete including the full CIS system. What kind of power loss would I experience if I stripped off the CIS and went with carbs? The motor is only 165hp to begin with... Thanks! Scott S |

When I bought my car it had a 2.7L motor built up to Bruce Andersen's 911 Performance Handbook spec's with 40 IDA carbs, headers, the proper cams, shuffle-pinned... everything except the Euro pistons. It had CIS. I wish I could give you numbers but never got that engine dyno'd. That said...
The car ran strong but I had to change jets often. Kind of a pain actually, and I'm sure I would have made more power with the proper pistons and more compression. How much is impossible to tell... But I wound up with a full set of jets and lots of experience balancing and jetting those carbs. Gave up all that when I traded away the motor for a 3.6L. Just make sure you have the 11 bladed fan, not the 5-bladed one, unless it's a track only car. I'm not near my books and don't remember what year those came on the 2.7 engine. That engine sounded great. |
