I have been working my tail off and saving money to build my 2litre motor this summer, so far i have saved $2500, If should have another $1500 in a month or so. However, I have been seeing 2.7-6 and 2.4-6 on ebay, the recycler and other places from $850.00 - $4000.
My question is - is it worth upgrading to a 2 litre from my 1.7, when a couple of thousand dollars more, i could get a six? And what is involved (price wise) to convert it from a 4 to a six. Give me some feedback - Craig |

While on the topic of weber carbs....
.....In the aftermarket/custom vw / hot rodding market for VW's, the thing THat was "BITCHIN" and "ALL THE RAGE" were weber 48 IDA 2 barrel downdrafters. Everyone had to have them....but they were no longer available new. So everybody had rebuilt 48 ida's. But weber realized the need and brought out all the old tooling and stuff and shipped a 48 ft container from spain(webers' new HQ ithink (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) ) to the states. Now all the buggers and ghia hot rodders can buy new carbs for their aircooled beasts. If weber realixed the need for those carbs, would the redo the 911/914.6 carbs too? |
