Spoke, I am glad to see things going well for you (?) A 911, really?
So far so good. When I lost my job of 27 years they paid me for 60 more days and gave me 30 weeks salary to live on til I found another job. Well, on day 61, I started my new job.
So my retirement gift to myself was to sell the green 74 914 and buy a 911. My wife is getting granite counter tops too.
I told my wife that I wanted to use a some of the money to put a new engine in the green 914 and she suggested to get a 911 instead of putting money into the 914. I don't think she ever liked the 914. I've always wanted a 911 so this was the perfect time.
I still have my red 71 914 with the transmission you rebuilt. New engine with original FI is ready to go in. Doing some long repair and side shift linkage swap then the engine goes in.
The roads cleared up on Friday and I was able to pick up the car. Wow does that turbo take off. Above 3K RPM the engine really comes to life.
