Full Version: I don't always have a beard, but when I did...
I finished building this 9146/ conversion, single turbo, on my '74 in 1978. Power was a 2.7L CIS with lower c/r pistons, methanol injection. Narrow body with 15" Fuchs, 911S front brakes, 9146 rear brakes, duck tail spoiler...a sleeper except you could hear it 1/2 block away . I kept this drivetrain until 1983, and went to 3.0L biturbo with intercooler

That was back when you took a picture and waited to develop it to see if you got a good one. You actually had to known what you were doing. Great picture.
Nice to see the car and you give each other so much through the years. How's your son's car going?
