my friend ryan showed up today with a new car he bought that has a nice clean little motor in it.but ran like crap cause the solex carbs where just beat from age.(he also ownes a nice 2.0 914) not very mechanicly inclined he asked me to show him how to install weber ict carbs on it.took about two hours walking him through it but it ran nice after he left.
i owned a few fastbacks this is a nice one.

A square (or any T3) is a perfect candidate for a T4 conversion.

it's a slippery slope...

i built a 2,0 T-III engine and it worked so well it broke the transmission - turns out 3rd and 4th are 2-piece gears and with enough torque, the 'press fit' doesn't hold them any more. when the parts slip, they get longer, and the thrust bearings go to hell in a hurry...
