We won't start until August, but the engine is here:

and:

Great looking motor! I look forward to watching the progress.

Kudos to you Steve...you found the motor for me!

Does this mean you are going to start showing up for track days and autocross? Be a shame to mess up that pretty yellow car. Hey, I got an idea to help you out, give the motor to me.

Maybe that's a bit too much engine for you Wills.....you should probably start out slowly with a 2.0 for a while.....

Nice looking engine, August is coming soon, only 75 days away +/-

I hope your gonna fix second gear . Can't wait to see the finished car, Mike's car is so nice to begin with.

Ferg

and reverse while your at it.
hope it starts

what's a valve adjustment cost on a 3.2? :

congrats Michael... and Joe!

brant

Good luck with your project, take lots of pictures!

Headers and sheet metal:

Engine stripped down for a 914:

All the 911 crap that came off:

Giddyup! I'll be watching this one!

quadruple post!!

giddyup!

LOL...

i hope you regear it....

Could you tell me who makes those headers? Thanks.

Bursch.

that'll be a fun motor to have in a 914 !!!!

Hey Joe, looks like you are running out of room in your garage

headers? you realize you are about to lose your heater

Welcome to AZ.....who cares!

that's why i was laughing

Break it up you two.....always fighting, GEEZ

Building the same configuration. What transaxle are you using?? Going to be a lot of fun watching you and learning from you. I will be building my in the "Snow Country" of Arizona.

Steve Hurt

For now, stock.

The parts are slowly rolling in. Got these today. Joe, I hope they are the correct parts.

mike,
do you know what those are?

Its my new super grip steering wheel. Beyond that, I have no idea.

Brake rotors for your 9 lug conversion?

wow....

where can i get rims like that?


tis a flywheel

C'mon, give me some credit. I know its a flywheel.(ok, ok...only because I ordered one and this is the part they handed me)

Look at that, they didn't even bother to sharpen up the teeth on the ring gear, quality control is really slipping these days. I'd love to hear it when the starter tries to engage those babies.

On the other hand, I suppose you could use those lugs for timing and bolt on seperate ring gear Might be too heavy though, too bad.

Mike,
make sure you post a pic of the waterpump when it comes in. I'd love to see which one you ordered.

who made that ? Kennedy sent eddie and I a spacer with starter teeth, and used the stock flywheel.
901 ?
just curious cant wait for more progress

In all seriousness, you are way over my head at this point so Joe will have to chime in.

where did you order the blinker fluid resevoir, and the flux capacitor from?

I'll have to see the back of the flywheel before I say it's correct.

Did you ask for a 'conversion flywheel to put a 901 on to a 3.2'?

The teeth you see are for the reference sensors.

The lack of a starter ring seems incorrect, but I'll call Jim to confirm.

I'll post a pic of the back. And yes, I told Jim 3.2 to a 901.

The back....

That looks right to me.

Yeah me too
Flux capacitor....Come on, we saw Back to the future also

Just to let you know, I will be using a 1984-86 flywheel (915 transaxle), KEP clutch package, and KEP starter ring along with the Motronic fuel injection. The 901 transaxle I will use will be knotched for sensors. I think we are talking about the same setup.

Just information exchange and to see we are on the same path.

Steve Hurt

Sorry for the delay. I had to leave town for 4 days after we got home from the WCC.

Boy meets girl (3.2 meets 914):

The first change of scenery in 13 months. Liz's car is now residing at her house:

She gave up her 85hp easily:

The new residence for 230hp (the license plate no longer applies):

Oh yeah....can you get Liz to work on cleaning? That thing is a mess!

I'm pretty sure that won't go over very well with Liz. She did a great job doing the shit work on HER car, but ........

I'll pitch in 5 bucks towards the cleaning process if we can get a current taco bumping pic.....
