Two years ago I took my 2056 TIV powered 912E to Roebling Roaad for a Driver's Ed..
It's not slow at all and handles WAY better than the same year 911!

not to diminish in any way your accomplishment, but it's a little bit of damning with faint praise...

the '76 911 was something of a low point for the model...

Yes, but it still had two more cylinders and the same amount of "Tail endedness"

I was quite amazed the my E did so well, especially since it was built out of used parts and not even blueprinted!

I have done resto work on several of the early 912,s and don't really like them, and I'm a big 356 guy. Former boss just sold a 69 912 rolling chassis with a dissasembled engine for $4000.00 (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/ohmy.gif) Car needed front trunk and had been hit in the rear. 69's are bringing crazy money for some reason? I'll be putting a 912 engine in my Manx some day (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/driving.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) BTW 76-77 911 = shart. Sorry cams, thermal reactors, emmissions (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/barf.gif) We have a PILE of 2.7 pistons that no one wants. Cylinders are great for JE pistons though
