So Saturday, at EASY, while Ways was garage saleing, and Andy was Octoberfesting, I saw a 914 at EASY that has a very well engineered install of a Honda Odyssey motor. Sounds like it goes like stink! Guy says he's a member here but this is the first time I've seen this.

The thing drew a crowd of about 10 guys. I made the comment "If a 914 drew this kind of a crowd at a Porsche event 40 years ago it was because they were asking the guy to leave!" (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)
