I have a HP 2L carb 44 IDF 914 that runs great above 3K, Porsche mach of some 30 yrs says I have a very solid rebuilt engine with a hotter then stock cam, the exhaust sys in too big past the collecter but header is a damn fine unit. He also says the exhaust sys has nearly no back pressure and wants to size it down from 2inch to 1 5/8 or 1 3/4, and I need to dump the TOO damn loud cherry bomb muffler. The porsche guy builds racing engines for the local Indy market, has his own dyno and flow bench, grinds his own cams, and seems to know his stuff as he only works on Porsche's. After talking to him yesterday, he thinks I also need a hotter/better eng sys, like a MSD, rather then stock 009 sys. Gents........... Your thoughts??? Questions?? Bob
