Well, 8+ years ago I started in on this project. I built an 8pt moly cage, took autobody classes at the local JC, did all the body work including put the fiberglass flares on and painted it. Took a wrecked '71 911 dash, steering column, wiring harness and fuse box and put it in as well as cutting back all corroded wires and replaced with clean wires from a donor harness. New electrical fittings from Würth, new thick heat shrink, and even drafted a color wiring diagram for future reference just as the factory did it. More pictures and explanations to fallow, or just ask me WTF were you thinking when you did "that", and I'll do my best to rationalize it.
Cheers, D. Attached thumbnail(s)

QUOTE(SirAndy @ Mar 19 2010, 10:39 AM) Ya, whats up with that? i measured and had put my friends rims on and they did not look that far in... same offsets and everything! I don't get where I went wrong, oh well. Been working on the motor. It started life as a '73E engine, 3R/4R case. I machined it for the oil bypass mod, welded one cracked head stud and machined the cylinder true and decked them. -Heads: bored 36mm Int/Exh, ported, polished on the exhaust. Twin plugged, new guilds, valves, Eibach springs, and titanium upper retainers. -Crank: inspected, micro-polished, center oil main drilled for connecting rod 2&5 -Cylinders are Mahle 92mm RSR pistons and cylinders, purchased in the mid 70's. -Cams: Dougherty DC60's -MFI pump rebuilt by Gus, Pacific FI to 2.7RS spec. I rebuilt the mfi stacks, bored them to 36mm on the throttle body, and 40mm on the plastic runners. Machined new aluminum linkages for butterflys. -Carrera chain tensioners, Supertec head studs, see through RSR fan shroud, Patrick twin plug rotor, MSDS multiple spark. Thats all I can think off at the moment. heres a pic. Attached thumbnail(s)
