I love the 2.4 with E cams and S crank. Very fun to drive on the street without the temperment of the S cams, IMHO

The S & E cranks are counter weighted on the 2.2 unlike the T but I believe you mean S pistons and cylinders.

Thanks Eric. Hopefully it gets done in my lifetime.

That's a nice engine. My plan is 2.2 S pistons, S heads, 2.4 CW crank, Solex cams and Weber carbs. Unfortunately, I don't have the cash for the p&c's at the moment so I'll do a rebuild on the T motor while I save up for parts. If I use my 2.4 CW crank straight out of the shoot I won't have to split the case to change to the S p&c's.

Thanks! Sounds like you're going to be building a great engine too! I would to eventually upgrade to Webers but as long as my Zenith's keep working and I can find parts for them than their is no reason to change. That is why I PM'ed you about the Zenith's on the engine you bought. It's been hard enough for me to find some one with one part and even harder to find them complete.

Thanks. I needed that to help get me motivated again.

I haven't had much time to work on it lately. Spring soccer season has me in a holding pattern. I did buy paint and almost finished up the passenger side flare. Not a whole lot of visual progress, though. I'm hoping to get the bodywork and paint done before winter sets in.

I had planned on painting the car before I put it together. Plans change. I need to get this thing rolling. After 2 years without progress I need some motivation. Driving it down the road is what I need.

Cleaned up the 911 hubs with oven cleaner. Didn't get them perfect but close enough for the girls I run with. Installed new bearings. What a total PITA. Even after baking hubs at 250 and using a 20 ton press they were difficult. Not looking forward to doing that again. Installed new rotors and S calipers (thanks Eric). A day or two more on the front's and I'll move to the rear.

I saw you front hub post but the wifi where I'm staying went down so I couldn't comment. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sawzall-smiley.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif) Keep after it!

I couldn't help but bump this thread. Life has a way of taking over project time. You have a great start on nice car John. Pick a small project and your one step closer. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Thanks for the bump Rick. This project has been stalled long enough. I was looking it over last week and started to get the itch to work on it again. Next thing you know I was logged onto the World. I then found Ben just down the road from me looking to make everything I need to finish it. I also just happened to have parts that he needs for his project. Sometimes timing is everything.

Thanks guys, I'm trying. Unfortunately, my weekends are booked for a bit. I made the mistake of buying a bunch of Christmas presents I need to install or build. So it's an alarm and stereo install for my sons car and making bedroom furniture for my daughter. When do kids usually move out? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)
