Gents, Newbie to the fourm. oh yeah ASL stuff... 1975 Rubber Bumpered, Fac.Injected (alive), 'Rootbeer' (colored not flavored), 914. Garaged/hibernating but stirring with some recent tinkering. "Project" of sorts.
Question: Anyone got a line on Reddawg Racing or know a website/addy or even a phone num?
Question 2: Would any of you (deranged) fella's want to purcahse a nearly complete, never installed, Reddawg set up? Details in brief:
Reddawg Custom Engine Support.
Reddwags custom made Heavy Duty Engine mounts.
KEP Engine/Transaxle addapter.
Reddawgs custom/slick radiator support/shroud system.
Nifty R'dawg "How to" tape that everyone raves about ;-)
Wierd stuff:
Setup is mated to a extremly low mileage 2001 GM 3.4 60' V6 that is presently fitted w/Headers and David of Reddawg built (masterful!) the setup a custom 3" exhaust w/included dual free flow mufflers that tie in together exiting out center rear of car ala "Boxter" style. Exhaust will need a decorative tip added when installed. It HAS a O2 sensor bung already (and a sensor, gratis)
Needed items/considerations are:
Radiator. (system/shroud intended for a 70's Camero type radiator)
Radiator Fan assy. ( " intended for Fiero, but aftermarket types supposedly fine)
Electroinc engine management for above unit. I know a shop that could hook you up but be forwarned and research the $$ required here.
Potential:
Block makes 185 Hp stock w/factory iron exhaust manifolds and cat.convert. With the supplied exhaust and lack of CC I'd assume it pushing 200(+?) HP. Reddawg and I both came to the conclusion/impression that the setup would only add some <250 lbs or less of weight over original stock setup and wouldn't likely need the extra supports/considerations of V8 conversions. YMMV.
More HP than a Audi TT, Half the weight, and NONE of the safety features... COOL!
Looming move requires begrudging sale. Idealy would like to pawn it off on a local (San Antonio, TX.) fellow but can arange crating/shipment if you'd give me a few days. AND/OR open to suggestions? should I list it on eBay or something?
Will try to answer your questions as best I can and hope to have some pics soon.
Regards,
Edward
