I recall seeing this engine here before. Looks to be a damn nice car. We need to figure out who this is and talk him out of selling. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/beerchug.gif)

This might be an interesting one to watch. Conventional wisdom seems to say that money spent on rebuilding a 4 banger is lost at resell. But if you convert to a 6, then your resell price goes up.

So considering that he is advertising a brand new (albiet stock) Raby engine, I will be very interested to see what it goes for. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/idea.gif)

don't ask me why I care, I can't imagine ever selling my car regardless of what I put behind the seat (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wub.gif)

its not a raby engine, just a raby cam

quote :
The heads and crank were sent to a local Porsche shop and received a complete rebuild including all new bearings, new intake and exhaust valves, hd springs, guides , etc. The case was align bored and the galley plugs were replaced [tapped and screwed]. I used a type 1 oil pump for better pressure, new flat top pistons [better compression] and cylinders. A new Raby designed 73 grind Web Cam was installed with a new gear and lifters also by Webcam.


sorry guys

What Raby Engine ? The guy said he put in a Raby Camshaft, Raby didn't build the engine according to his description... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wacko.gif)

Just wanted to clarify that.
