The time has come to start assembling the motor. I painted the tins over the weekend and, all that is left to paint is the fan assembly. 2 years of strip, clean condition paint......... I am done...
I will be cleaning up the garage over the Holiday and weekend and start assembling the motor this weekend or next week. Its been a long 2 years gathering all this, and is hard to believe it is almost time. I will be checking in and asking for advice on the engine build in this thread as my motor is nearly identical to the 914. I have TWO questions at this point, 1. I seem to have misplaced the new recommended list of engine case and sealants. Does anyone have this? 2. It is time to decide if I will use the Steel backed silverline (made in Mexico) bearings, or the non steel backed Mahle (looks to be Brazil). Yeah, I know there are a million opinions on this, and I plan to go with the steel backed at this point, but figured I'd ask. Appreciate any advice here, is my first Type 4 build. THANKS! |
