The 2.7s "Achilles Heel" were the thermal reactors that showed up in '75. The already sketchy valve guide wear was accelerated by added heat. Pulled stud issues are well publicized. Porsches "Federally Mandated" bumpers are also a better looking design than anything that came out of Detroit or anywhere else for that matter. Give thanks to the late-great Tony Lapine. |

Color me ignorant. 1978 Turbo If "tea try" is referring to the rear tail this car has, it was used on the 76/77 Turbos with the 3.0L engine. 1978 got a larger tail to cover the intercooler that was added in 78 with the 3.3L engine.

The "tea tray" spoiler didn't appear until 1978 and yes, the intercooler had some bearing on it's size. The '75-'77 Turbos used a variation of the '75 Carrera spoiler. The tea tray looks like this. The rubber is the "tray". (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) I had never heard any of them referred to as a "Tea Tray" but there are all kinds of nick names for things. The car in the ad has the earlier Turbo tail. I actually like the look of the early tail better than the latter tails used on the inter-cooled cars. Jim  |
