Although the 2.0 in my car was running nicely, I wanted to get back to the original engine and transmission so that the numbers matched.

The original was a 1.7, but I decided to build it out to a 2056 with all stock DJet fuel injection.

Below are the details together with some pictures.

I am thrilled with the results. Nice increase in power, but mostly I am amazed at how responsive and smooth it is.

Cruise control

SWEET!!! that engine compartment turned out great!, i hope to be installing mine this weekend!!.

Looks great! Who's Birals are you running?

Some REALY good stuff going on in this thread..GREAT job

Any details on the Cruise Control? how you like, etc

So how is that 9550 cam working with the D-jet FI system? It was my understanding that the 9550 did not play well with D-jet.

I had checked into it before the build and was assured that it would work in the application. I would say that it works beautifully. Engine performs better than expected.

That came out looking great! Also curious how the hot-rod 2056 works with the Djet

Super sano rebuild. Congrats!!

The cruise control is from Rostra. I'm not sure if this is the same model, but it will get you on the right track - Rostra Cruise Control.

The trickiest part was adding a switch to the clutch pedal to disable cruise. They connect to the brake light to disable when braking.

To sense speed, I glued a small magnet to the CV Joint and mounted a sensor to the transmission - see picture below.

I mounted the control to the shift column because it was a bit clumsy to put on the steering column.

Here's a pic of the speed sensor:

I forgot to share a pic of the super-deluxe blasting booth I used for the hours of bead blasting:

Super nice build, it looks great.

Is that one of Jeff's FI harnesses?

Thanks

Whose swivel feet did you use? Genuine Porsche?
The adjuster stems look on the long side. I know I had to trim mine as they were touching the valve covers.

Dang it your making me look bad, i need to get off my ass

No, I did the harness myself with connectors from 914 Rubber.

I believe the adjusters are genuine Porsche. The were part of the Raby Cam kit, and they were identified as 911 adjusters.

I don't think they're hitting the valve covers, and I suspect I would hear hit if they were.

Looks awesome. I want your exhaust. It's looks brand new. Where did you get it
