Hey all. Who wants to donate their two cents worth on this... I am converting to six cyinder, and I have two engines.... a 2.2T with webers and a 2.7S with CIS.
I thought the CIS would be nice for everyday driving, and would be less troublesome overall, especially if the car sits for a long period of time. However, I heard there are some clearance issues on the rear firewall. Has anyone overcome this? Or would it be better to use the carb setup on the 2.7 and change the cams???? Either way I have pieces left over... and pieces to buy. Thanks. -Kris |

Funny you should mention it. Club members alerted me to a Craig's list 2.7 on the cheap. Got that, a tail shifter, 911 front and 5 lug rear adapters and a bunch of other stuff as the guy was just cleaning up his garage. Got a nice looking CIS. So the whole mess has been cleaned up and set aside for a 'someday' project. Would love to do a 904 or 718, but wonder if I will get to it in this life (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) |
