Enough of the little horsepower pissing match, it's time for the fast cars to have their pissing match.
I'll be honest, my loyalty to the P-motor doesn't run very deep. They are WAY to expensive for the HP you get. The ONLY advantage i can see from a performance standpoint is the weight, and i'm not sure it's as big as everyone imagines (guessing less than the weight of a decent passenger). The SBC is easier to work on, builds more HP easily, lasts longer at the same HP level, and sounds better (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/flipa.gif) (subjective i know). You do lose the front trunk, but a 914 is not a practical car to start with, so no biggy (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/boldblue.gif) I understand people wanting to keep the bloodlines true and blah blah blah.. isn't that kinda like in-breeding? please discuss (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/driving-girl.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/driving.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/burnout.gif) |

So what is the final word? An I still an accepted member here with my totally modified car? Non stock body, non stock engine in fact, there is nothing stock on my car.
I like the stock 914 however, I just saw a Chalon when I was much younger and wanted one so bad and now I have it. I made the car I wanted. It's still a 914 somewhere in there. Parts of it are anyway. |
