@sb914 Thank you!
@orangebones Yes looking forward to this Rallye.
@porschetub Dean, thanks my friend. Con rods ? Oh those little Pauter things?
Just a little somethin’ somethin’ (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
@rgalla9146 Rory you & Dean zeroed in on those con-rods
(IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
@gereed75 Thanks buddy, yeah I think the 2.4 should have been the standard 6 for the 914. Seems made for it, IMHO.
@Maltese Falcon Thanks Marty!

Doing a punch list before this rally. Bolts to be torque’d, spare wipers, bulbs, fuses, fuel pump, tool kit, oil, etc.

Matt

I basically have the same motor except 9.5 JE pistons and DC30 mod Solex cams. Really like the cams. Good low end power with a nice almost S top end kick.

Stock rods and valve train. Revs to 7200 no problem.
