That's what I'd call injector porn. Very nice.

yes it is! all re plated parts including the rail which you cants see here very well are from Bruce Stone- my newly repainted fan housing should be here any day and I can start putting all the new stuff back on the motor - the only thing I have not done is send in my throttle body to have it rebuilt by our member here that is doing this, but I really should - its not cheap but worth it I have heard.

Drove it hard to the top of Mount Umunhum in the South San Jose foothills being chased by my friend in his E30 M3. The roads were empty close to sunset and fun to drive. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

Not the 914 but for those with non original 6s, am replacing the CIS with EFI and Triumph triples ITBs run by Megasquirt on my 3.0. Shouldn’t increase the horses but provide much better throttle response and flatter torque up to red line. Probably will squeeze a couple extra MPG if I can keep my foot out of it, but what’s the fun in that? Work being done by X-Faktory Mt Vernon, Wa.
If it works as well as anticipated, then will do the same for the teener.



That will be an awesome set up. Will also allow you to play with cam selection in the future.

I got my new vanity plates. I'm very excited about them as well.

http://www.2002and914.com/?page_id=42 has the brief back story about them but I can't wait to put them on the car.

Installed a vehicle immobilizer: hidden fuel pump kill switch. Not flatbed proof, but when parked with the top off an ounce more protection.

Beware cheap plastic toggle switches, they can’t handle the current over time. Bought a 32 AMP switch at NAPA. Pictures posted on the dark web. Muahaha


If you relay the wire, you can use any switch. I love kill switches. So simple, yet, very effective.

Passenger side seat track (floor pan clip) for the '70 Ghia was delivered today (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Blasted it at shop class this evening - will commence final wash/dry and primer this w/e.

Once I get the Ghia's seats installed (making it a truly driveable car), I'll think about getting back to work on the 'BB' -

I'm sure a carb cleaning/rebuild is in order ... I haven't started it since mid-2015 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

That sure is a pretty Ghia! I always liked Ghia’s but out of the 10 VW’s I’ve owned I never had one of those.
