It is the folks like Richard Clewitt, Perry Kiehl, Eric Shea, Richard Paar, Harry Schmidt, Brad Mayeur, Racer Chris, and many more (apologies to those not named directly)that make this hobby so wonderful. Their advice and willingness to share their knowledge is without equal and what allow us to still in joy these cars when many of their contemporaries have long gone to the crusher.


Amen, brother, add in Mark & Matt at 914 Rubber, and Bruce Stone too!!!!


Don't forget McMark as the credits roll.

Good points made, Perry was slow to get my loom done but came in with a top quality product ..was very happy with the end product,Clewit leads are another great product which I used in my build,talked with Bob @ ashlocktech and got my ignition 100% and for a carbed engine really can't believe how well it starts and runs.
Running Pertronix II with Marelli dizzy ,Permatune blue unit from 75 MY 911 ,but I found from Bob my coil was wrong,Perry had mentioned this also so I ordered Permatune transformer coil and all was good.
End result is truly worth the work.
Would love crank fire but haven't looked into it and not really too educated in that area.
Good luck Lawrence (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) .

Yes, I get them back next week. These prevent wear and "walking." The stock aluminum spacers will be elliminated.

These will never wear out.

Been following your thread and I am almost in the same exact place as you are on my 3.0. Got my idler arms done by Henry Schmidt through Ken at 911 Vintage in Fallbrook CA. I think that this is one of the best design improvements you can do to improve the chain tensioners for sure. Before and after Pic.

I got to get my thread going again!

Good luck with your build! See you at the 914 Fun Day

This cost me six weeks. I know the /6 Porsche engine will be insane and fun, but if I had this to do all over again, I wouldn't have done it.

You need to look at the build as part of the fun.
