Out of the blue the wife gave me permission to spend a bunch of cash on the teener. I have the slightest idea what I did right or what she did wrong.
I have to check out the finances but I'd like to do a 6 conversion. I know diddly about the flat 6. I need some help. My end goal is to basically have a street legal track car. I like the small high reving 6's but like I said I know nadda. The only thing that it has to have is carbs. I'm not into FI and ECU's. What's my best engine choice? I'm about 1/4 way through the 911 performance handbook trying to educate myself. I can build an engine if thats my best option. I should also ask the average conversion cost.

I ran a 2.4 w/2.2S pistons and e cams. Match porting, webers, not much else. Plenty of torque on the street, was awesome for autoX. I had the original six, no flares with and 7" fuchs. At one autoX, I let the top time of the day driver (driving a highly modified no $ spared 911 with huge wheels & tires) take me for a fun run. With both of us in the car, he beat his top time of day by half a second. I eventually sold this car to a friend of mine who has raced it successfully in SCCA and PCA with many wins. Great combo, very reliable, streetable, not big $. You could add more cam but I was happy with the drivability of the "E" cams. hth
