[QUOTE]Where's that shivering smilely?

Tell me about it. I just got home from work. Kind of chilly for the no heat action.

Fairfield county. I always forget about those guys. My Victoracers are down to the cords, but maybe I'll come and run on my street tires. I'm already in mountain bike mode though since the last autocross I was at was 2 or 3 weeks ago. Judging by your post you'll be there?

Mine was down for the whole season....... Its sill at Mark's on Jackstands while he finishes my suspension.

The engine is just a few weeks awy from coming to life in version 2.0 for the 2316, this time its Hybrid head equipped!

If it don't make 195 ponies and rev to 8500 this time around, its coming apart till it does!

These heads are BITCHIN!

Jackstands come out over semester break.
-Resolve some fuel pressure issues
-Groove and regrease suspension bushings
-Fab adjustable drop links and rod ends for a 22mm front anti-roll bar.
-Instal a stock rear bar
-Do some interior stuff.
-Throw on some falkens in the spring.
-Get ready for the season (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)
-Pray the rest of the car hold together (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif)

Here is the reason for the sways (IMG:style_emoticons/default/w00t.gif)

Well it made it on and off stands a couple of times this year. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Now its back up on the dolly once more and its getting a new heart. Im heading to Cal. at Thanksgiving to pick up Sklines 928 and do an Alien conversion (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif) When I get it home and figure out a plan those carbs and old intakes (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) will be up for sale. Probably they will come with all of the 1.7 though.

Install 200# rear springs.
Repair some engine compartment rust. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif)
Put in sealed battery.
Experiment with homemade exhaust set-ups. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool.gif)

Kit Carlson is on the way- Trust me..

He and I both want plenty of test time and thorough understanding of it before it is sold simply so we can help much better with installs...

My car sat on jack stands for almost 2 years. I retire in 18 months and during that 18 months I plan on driving the crap out of it! When I retire I will be able to do a big project. I'd really like to convert to a 6. I'd like to do the conversion even if I have to (gulp) sell my 911 (gasp). It's also time to buy a welder and learn how to use it.

cheers, Elliot
