hello,
Been thinking about a new project. Has anyone driven a 914 over 200 mph? Enough horsepower can be obtained with a V8. Might need turbos to keep the motor reasonable. Aside from the required safety mods. any input on areo tricks would be helpful. I know a stock body tends to get very light at high speed. My stock bodied V8 conversion starts getting real skittish around 145. Can this be done or am I nuts? Thanks David |
