Much like my grandmothers recipe for Amish oatmeal chocolate chip cookies would have been lost forever if someone didn't take the time to write it down, it is similar that many of those on the site who comment or watch from a far have common sense low cost solutions to building a type 4.
Not really asking for your trade secrets or any self promotion, just common sense solutions that over the years have worked for you. Primarily want to hear folks low tech, low cost alternatives for repairing or rebuilding the type 4 or the 914. Anything as a permanent approved repair fix to a Macgyver fix that can get you by. Anything that works well in combination that you figured out on your own or with someone else's help. Again primarily looking for a dialog on low cost common sense technicis to type 4 repair and rebuild info. Cheap tricks. Thank you |

Thank you So now you're just gathering info so you can evaluate the alternatives? Get in touch with Mark of Original Customs (username here McMark, you can search), ex-California and now somewhere that has snow, up near you. He's a nice guy, skilled, and will give you realistic and impartial information. For general T4 engine conversation you can try the Shoptalk Forums, the Type4up, here: http://www.shoptalkforums.com/viewforum.php?f=1 Probably all the information you could want will be there in one form or another, do searches. There are several other 914-specific shops/vendors or T4 specific engine builders, you'll begin running across their names, but Mark's a good one, I think anyone here will vouch. |
