Here it is.
Make a choice, and then tell us all why you say so. Argue somewhere else. Make your point and move on, please. Thanks 914club! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/clap56.gif) Trekkor |

I voted big six.
The no hassle DME 3.2 is priceless over all. But I do miss my 2.7 with webers. The 2.7 was a direct bolt up with early stock flywheel and clutch. I also miss the awesome sound of the webers especially in the Alameda tunnel. But I don't miss the pulled head studs, clogged jets and tensioner problems. All but the carb hassle could of been fixed with a proper overhaul. The 3.2 motor cost me less money than over hauling the 2.7 and it already had all the updates with no carb hassles. At the time 3.6 motors were to much money and hassle. Cutting up the tin and major hassle to get to the bottom plugs turned me off. If or when my 3.2 dies I might look into a 3.6 since they have dropped in price... Steve |
