I'm getting a RAT!!, MASSIVE TYPE4 in the worlds lightest 914 Options

[URY914]

Yes, boys and girls. It's about to happen. Jake and I have struck a deal on his "loaner" engine. It is 2316 cc, 186 HP of pure power. As Jake explains it was used as a test engine for different set ups for his dyno tests and than loaned out to guys while thier engine's were being rebuilt.

Now I've got to fab up some wheelie bars for my car. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/happy11.gif)

Let see.... if a stock 914 had 90 hp and weighed 2200 pounds that is 24.44 pounds per HP.

My car will have 186 HP and weigh 1400 pounds or 7.52 pounds per HP.

So if I got this right, my car should be faster than a stock 914, right? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/confused24.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/w00t.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/happy11.gif)

Sounds awesome! My tail dragger has an honest 190 hp at the wheels (i.e., dyno'ed), it's not significantly lighter than any other long hood 911, and it's scary fast within the powerband (3500 and up). Your car ought to be a screamer!
