So was 4.7 litres of Teutonic V8 quick? I've only seen one pic (recognized the Pasha trim through the front screen) and it wasn't very good (the pic -not the car)
After a monumental effort to ready it for the WCC did it run ok?? |

Those guys were a couple of engineers from California. I wasn't aware of there car until sometime after I started on my car. Mike Z sent me a scanned Pano article from like 1992 or something. After reading through the article it appears they were not as interested in building a Porsche V8 914 as they were in building a mid motor car with a simlar wheel base as the 917. I don't really count there car as a 914 V8. I looks nothing like a 914 any more. In fact it looks like a wrecker without a boom on the back. With all the interest in my car I'm tempted to make up some conversion parts for resale. BTW You will have to cut the car and you will loose interior space. Ask Andy....
