Yep...
Just took on the engine job tonight! Its a 2615cc EFI Turbo using my new heads and a set of Nickies and no budget! Lookin for 400 ponies.... The entire car weighs 1300 pounds and is based on a full tube chassis, all covered with correct 914 body panels in Carbon Fiber/Kevlar with a Black and Yellow weave.... the suspension is also amazing and looks like an ALMS car with massive ducting and incredible brakes. The guuy is a composites engineer and has made all the panels himself. To answer your question- He won't sell other parts or make them! I already tried that one with him! He also won't allow me to post the pics, but man is it amazing looking. He is building the car for someones collection, but he won't tell me who........ Wild stuff! Lookin for 400 ponies! This one will bring some developments to light that no one else has been willing to pony up the bucks for! |
