Well after spending lots of $$$ and seeing lots of work coming up, I hope to finally have my car to a respectable point. Should have a decent 2.3 with TBI and Microsquirt. Koni adjustable on all 4 corners. Front and rear anti sway bars. Rear coil overs and 180lb springs. New rotors, wheel bearings front and rear. All new bushings. Adjustable drop links on the front. DIY Autotune hotspark ignition. And lots of 914 rubber goodies.

This is going to be a lot of work! Will try to document it as it progresses.

Ha! By your title, and the fact we know each other, I thought I forgot that I scheduled a trip to visit or something. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

You learn that there are a lot of parts that can soak up time and money that most will never see.

Oh well looks like some warm weather is coming and I will be able to do some bigger parts.

Clean, paint,............

I just KNEW that Camaro was going to go off course. Looked like he was pushing a little too hard. I was hoping your video was longer so I could see if he was still off course when you came around again. Didn’t look like he did any damage, but maybe just needed a few moments to gather himself.

Plotting evil things takes time. Lots of parts have to come together before I can take over 914 World.

Got some 315 cc injectors courtesy of Five O Motorsports.

With these Tarett axels the world will cower at my feet!

Pay no attention to the kitty butt in the photo. All part of my evil plan.

Looks great.....I know you said it's a 2.3, but can you give any build details, and/or who built it?

I have some of the history of the engine but not the exact builds details. Jansen Enterprise in Belmont CA Did the build.

But has mostly the standard mods swivel foot rockers, 78mm crank, cam, dual spring big valve heads, lightened flywheel, and balanced.

Nope!its stil there ready to run.

This one is FI as well and should put up some respectable HP numbers. Keeping the 2056 as a back up.

Might be able to keep up with you soon!

I know that guy. He does decent work. That engine should be put together correctly. He works on my buddy's drag Ghia T1.
