Hi 914World,
New(ish) member with new project - a 1975 2.0L. It's certainly a project, but I think it's a great starting place. The seller is extremely knowledgeable about the car and helpful with local contacts who are in the 914 scene. It's been on the local CL for a while for more than I wanted to pay, but was recently able to strike a deal. Here are some specs about the project:
2055cc "build" project in pieces currently (with matching numbers)
Looking forward to this one! |

Here's a nice break from all the metal work... I picked up my "new" engine longblock this weekend. This project ended up costing quite a bit more than I had planned once we discovered some of the parts that came with the car were not worth using in the rebuild. I'm taking a nice break from grinding and welding to get the top end assembled so I can hear this thing roar to life.
Here are some specs for the 2056: -Factory GC Case, align-bored .020" Over -New DRD C/W Forged 71mm Crankshaft -New Connecting Rods -New AA 96MM Pistons -New Webcam 86a & Lifters -Original, stock oil pump -Original, lightened flywheel -Rebuilt 2.0L Heads -New Webcam HD single springs -OE 911 Swivel Adjusters -9.1:1 Static Compression Will be adding a pertronix flamethrower III distributor and a set of Empi HPMX IDF 40 dual carbs shortly.

I will get this cleaned up and powder-coated for final assembly: (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i120.photobucket.com-19557-1493606256.4.jpg) That's all for now, but a nice distraction from all the metal work! |
