Why have the shit bothered out of you, when you can put it in their face instead (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Definetly do a few shows! With that quality of work, I'm sure you'll get enough compliments to put a grin on your face. A couple guys have Outlaws that do quite well at the PCA events, up here north of the Mason Dixon. Your interior guy has some skittles to say the least. It's all about enjoying it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) I'm sure you'll eat up many a stock car on track by the time it's said and done. Looking foward to more shots.

When I attend Porsche events and VW shows alike I can't have any fun because I get 10,000 questions about engines.. Sometimes if I go I can hide but with a car that pops this loud in every way that won't happen.
Billy is the best!! My Double Cab goes to him next but it will be alot more utilitarian than the 356. |

I've never been a real 356 guy, but damn that looks good Jake. Great color scheme.
What are you going to be running as a powerplant? I assume type IV, but what are the details? |

QUOTE What are you going to be running as a powerplant? I assume type IV, but what are the details? Yes, MassIVe power for sure!! The engine I have built on deck for it now makes the power in the graph below as a 2,430cc combo. I plan to use this one over the summer and fall, then swap in my 2,980cc Turbo engine. I want to take plenty of time to perfect that combo in my lab before it ever goes into the car.  |

According to the HONDA followers you need VTEC to get that done. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif) Nice work, looking forward the full photo shoot. Smitty |

QUOTE Nice looking wheels. If I'm not mistaken, your graph shows over 200hp. The torque is all I care about on that graph, and where it is made in the RPM range. This is done with 9.8:1 CR, on pump gas with a camshaft with less than 295 degrees of duration and LE 200 heads. Its all in the combo. |

Impressive specs for a 2.4....I'm guessing EFI?
BTW a 356 with 200hp would be a friggin' rocketship (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif) Mine with probably 105-110 does just fine on the street. |

Just 45mm Dellorto DRLA carbs. FI doesn't make big peak power on these engines; it adds drivability. My engines never have drivability issues, even at power levels well over 200HP, and Dells that are properly tuned and modified drive just as well as FI IMHO. This first engine will remain carbureted since it is a carb specific combo and has a crappy vacuum signature for EFI. The Turbo engine will run full Electromotive Engine Management when the time comes. If I am happy with the 2,430cc engine I might just leave it in place for good. |

Grey/Blk is a cool color my buddy painted a RSR, my son's Golf mk4 and his personal 930 the same. All after we saw Ted Anthony's GT3 in The color.

Here is a little broader shot before the seats went in.. You can get an idea of the exterior color better from it. (still needs to be color sanded and buffed)

Cool color, 356 and 911 look really nice in that color. I also loved the old Audi dolphin grey, very similar.
Cool deal about the Dell 45s, those are awesome when setup right. I haven't put in my cheap 6, but I couldn't afford that 2.4, as oddball-cool as it'd be. |

In person this color looks different than any other Porsche grey color I have seen.. Deep and rich with a chocolate base...

Creaming (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wub.gif)
Jake, I'd like the guys number and info. I'm having a hell of a time finding a decent upholstry guy around here. Hard enough time I have bought a machine and was going to make a go of it myself (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) But in retrospect, I really don't need another project right now (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) |
