Just a quick introduction. I am picking up a 74 1.8 this weekend to do a 6 conversion on. I built one about 15 years ago but then sold it and had a 964 and a 911 turbo in its absence. I have since sold everything and have not had a porsche in about 3 years.
Technology has changed since my absence and was looking for a quick list of must do's when doing a conversion.. Thanks |
