James Montebello (Lapuwali) was gracious enough to take JLO's engine off of my hands. Here's a few pics of the 2.2 Dell carbed motor going to it's new home. James says he may have it in by next week!

Gee, is my butt really that big?

Thanks much, Bill and Doris. Since I (just) discovered that you can't remove or replace the center rod of a side-shifter w/ the engine in place, I'll have to wait to acquire those parts before I install the new engine. Maybe the week after next...

Anyone want a smoking (as in out the exhaust, not as in fast) 1.7 with a grunchy tail-shifter? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)

I think Britt Dodd Dood was looking for one.

James,

So the suby conversion is kaput? You're gonna be hard pressed to bring the 912 to breakfasts when this is running... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif)

I was pretty intent on the Soob conversion, but this deal came up, and I got a chance to drive JLO with this drivetrain first. It's a one afternoon to a running car deal instead of several months of faffing about with a Soob conversion deal. Hard to beat that, esp. considering this is quite a bit cheaper than a Soob conversion would be.

I'm putting the 912 on the block as soon as I finish a couple of details on it. With any luck, I'll be driving a 914 to the next breakfast.
