Who all have tales/tribulations about buying a nice motor?
Any reccomendations on places to look into? Im not interested in an off-the-shelf TIV, but a nicely built motor with some fire... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif) I have been looking for somthing from outside CA if possible.....fuck the government, I dont wanna give them any of my tax $$...! "justveedubs.com" seems like they might have something in store for me...any horror stories or better reccomendations? a bit of customization to their "2700cc TIV" might do the trick nicely.....mebbe "101.5" instead of those 104's though... woah....

[I know you are working for the high-end market, filling that price-point.....but do you have any inclination to offer a high-tech but slightly more budget minded engine option? IE. carbourated? that would knock off like 5K no?] -JD |

oh yeah!
I knew what I was getting into buying the wheels, just haddnt figured out the plan-of-action yet... MY '72 914 4-lug wheels, New big-ass wheels are '82 911sc 5-lugs, what all must be changed in order to accomadate these, new 5 lug rotors, or can I just get the current ones re-lugged, also are these Fuchs offset deeper then a regular wheel, or will i NEED flares for them to squeeze under there, I would HATE to do all the brake swapping then only find out when mounting them that flares would ALSO be neccessary, If so, I might just put these wheels on my Bug, a narrowed beam and/or flared fenders are CHEAP and EASY.....! |
