make sure you get ALL the 2,7 stuff - especially the fuel pump and filter, and as many factory lines as you can. CIS runs ~4Bar so you don't want to be scrimping on leaky fuel lines. i wouldn't cheap out on an engine mount, but maybe that's just me. the deal on an oil tank is you definitely need one, and it's another place not to be too cheap because if done incorrectly it can kill your engine. especially if it ever sees any track time (and what would be the fun otherwise?) make sure you have or get an 11-blade fan. look for head studs pulling. obviously you will need an exhaust. yes, you will need a 914.6 or pre-'70 911 flywheel. you'll want a 6-cyl tach. you'll probably want oil temp & pressure gauges to match the senders in the engine. you'll need a bunch of oil lines. |
