I think a lot of "early" 911 owners are considering larger engines for their light weight rides. (I know both Rich and myself are...). Kinda like a lot 914 owners are looking for bigger 4's or 6's for their rides. This may be why there's a bunch of $1200-1500 T motors out there (there was a buttload of 911T's made). I think as the SC's and earlier Carreras (85-87) get cheaper it's becoming viable. The early 911's are actually getting "more" expensive. Would you do a $7-8k rebuild on your stock "T" motor or would you buy a hard to kill 3.0 or 3.2 for $5-6k (for a good running one) and have close to 200 factory hp on tap? (how? by putting an early exhaust and Webers on an 3.0SC motor, you'll be just over 200hp)
I love short strokes. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wub.gif) My favorite short stroke motor build is Euro 90mm RS pistons on a 66mm crank. Rebush the rods to get the compression back up (so your chains aren't too loose). S-cams and Webers. This should give you a 210hp, 2.5L fun machine. Excellent for a 914-6/GT clone! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/w00t.gif) Cap'n Party Pooper's right. sixnotfour is right. Miles is right. J P is incorrect... AI AM NOTTTTTTTT TOUCHIE. YA GOT IT!? IM NOT, IM NOT, IM NOT, IM NOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) |
