That was 30 years ago. CA is no longer that state sadly. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif)

The engine is now ready to slip into the car. Thanks go to Aase (Allen) and Jim for getting this wrapped up and ready to go. The only change will be the replacement of the K&N air element with the NOS air-box I have.

Gorgeous engine...in the meantime I'd throw a glass top on it and place in my living room.
Then drink a beer (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer3.gif) and stare at it....have enough beers it may start!!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif)

Love this thread...learning a lot

That air flow meter is going to hit the engine lid release. I had to extend my air flow meter and move it over 45 degrees.

Looks great. Like everyone else, I went to flaps and bought the $10 adapter tube to use my stock airbox. Made a little bracket to hold it in the altered location. I leave the snorkel off, it just twists off

MB911's heat exchangers are looking good on that engine!
Should be a very fun car to drive and enjoy.

I appreciate the comments. I am pretty excited to have that part almost wrapped up. I have no issues with the K&N filter, except I kind of believe it would just be a bit louder than the factory airbox. At my age, I really do not want it to be any louder behind my head than necessary. That's why I sourced a NOS airbox.

As for the car getting painted, I leave all that to Kent. He does not need any prodding when it comes to getting my car done. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Thanks for the tip re the MAF hitting the engine lid release. I know we had to move that on my other 914-6 that had a 3.0 with CIS. I do not know if the stock 3.2 airbox will create issues with the engine lid latch or not. Anyone know?

Well we can deal with that once the engine is installed. We can test fit the lid and see what we have to do.

This thread is like playing with a Jack-In-The-Box. Clicking on it is like turning the handle and wondering if the colorful clown is going to pop up. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/chowtime.gif)

Love that engine though (IMG:style_emoticons/default/drooley.gif)

Like I said, it’s easy. I did mine myself in an hour and it looks pretty good.

Probably why Scotty doesn’t post here. My understanding from Sandbox posts is that he is afraid of clowns... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif)

So I believe this is wrapping up the body work on the car. There were a bunch of lite pick hammer strikes on the underside of the hood that are now fixed. The hood fits great.
