Hello folks,
This 1973 p914 marks my entry to the world of air cooled auto adventure. after a year search i found a well maintianed driver. i was an air craft mechanic for 10 years and spent many of those years hunched over aircooled airplane engines. i have always wondered about the aircooled car world. the p914 was a perfect choice for me, mid engine, aircooled and it can fit my 6'2" frame. So here is where the 13 engines come from. after 500 miles on my new purchase i find non ferrous metal in the screen. most pieces were 1/8' wide. after a search i found 13 engines at a very very good price. So my question is, What do i do with 13 engines? My ultimate goal is to build a spare engine from a collection of the best parts but what should i do with the rest?
