Hi everyone, given how awesome this site is and the wealth of knowledge I’d like to do what seems like the best option for me and that is get my 914 on the road and keep it on the road. Need some help, advice, how to’s, anything that could help me build the motor. I’m mechanically inclined, I’ve built an engine before on a 2.5 Nissan Sentra (i know dark times before) but only did the easy stuff like assemble after a machinist put the crank and rods in. I’ve been restoring in the garage for about a month or so and although the engine “ran” when parked 20 years ago it seems like the right time to rebuild. What parts should I use, any good videos to watch, anything to read, how can an average guy like me split the case open and handle the rebuild step by step while killing time in the garage? Open to suggestions on displacement, fuel delivery, places for machine work, any suggestions and even sarcasm are accepted. Big fan of Ian Karr so have been watching his videos, just waiting for the final release of his engine build for more insight Thanks everyone! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sawzall-smiley.gif)
