you are credited with this one:

So over this summer, I refreshed the suspension and brakes that are going on the -6. I’ve had a set of front suspension with delrin bushings, 21mm torsion bars, big aluminum calipers and -6 rear trailing arms with delrin bushings. It’s all repainted and ready to go in. A mild heart attack at the end of September and a triple bypass 6 days later postponed a bunch of work. I’m getting back to it cleaning parts for the winter project of building a motor.

I’m looking for motor advice. I want a small displacement screamer. We don’t have freeways on the Maine coast and it’s not going to be a daily driver just a toy that I will never sell. So, I am building this on a 914-6 case, not the original which I have, counter weighted crank with matching rods, 69S heads, 81 mm 906 pistons and cylinders with 40mm Webers. Which cams? I am looking for a willing motor with explosive ( for a small motor) revs from 4500rpm up to 7500. What does the group say? Our old track 911sc was a 3.2 with ge80 cams which did that but I don’t want that kind of power for a street car. What does the group say? 911s, mod S, 906, Dc60?
