I'm calling on my 914 brothers for their valued opinions. Please help! I'm looking to buy a 3.6 vario-ram 3.6L motor for my 914 and I was wondering what you guys think about this? The company I'm looking to buy the engine from will not provide any compression check data, they say they just won't do it. But they will provide leak down check info. This engine is pretty pricey and I was wondering if not receiving the compression check data would be a deterant for you guys in buying this engine. Thanks a ton!

Search member PRS9146 and read the story of his 3.6 install. He bought his at LA Auto as well. Got them to extend the warranty until 30 days after he put it in. Similar miles, needed valve guides or job, and was only running on one distributor.
