Hey Guys,
There have been some questions asked about substitution of Nickies in place of factory cylinders, both cast iron and mahle nikasils, and I'm just curious how sticktly the rules are read into- is it just that the cylinders must be to the specifications of the factory pieces (since JE's are already used in E and F prod) or do the actual factory pieces have to be retained? Can it be argued that if other aftermarket cylinders are used (Chinese, Brazilian, Mexican), can't Nickies also be used, since it isn't actually factory cylinders being used- just cylinders made to resemble and to the specifications of the original pieces? I appreciate the input guys, it would be nice to have a definative answer on this one for numerous guys out there with Nickies and those considering Nickies for their 911 or 914. |

Never mentions material of cylinders. However if someone EVEN believes you have a 1 hp over them because of your cylinders being Aluminum then you get protested. You will lose and have to pay the cost of inspection. So welcome to Street modified or what ever the club racing class is . Someone has dyno numbers here to prove you make more power with Nikkies.... Hmm Jake? Thats about all it takes to win a protest.
Had to put a carpet kit back in my car to make it SM-2 legal. Covered up my sexy epoxied floors. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wacko.gif) Not familiar with E and F production club racing but I thought they are pretty hot classes. |
