(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/driving.gif) Just bought a huge 914-6 project. The car was one of the factory prototype cars, it is #0031. The car is entirely apart, beed blasted and ready for primer. I have a few things that need to be welded, but I think that will be fairly easy. The car will come with a original 914-6 motor which is brand new. The motor is factory fresh, it was bought a number of years ago from some german parts supply place that went out of business. The cylinders still have the original factory dye in the pistons. My question is, what should I do to it before installation to make sure that it's been prepped perfectly. What should I look to go wrong, it looks really nice, but after 36 years I'm sure that there must have been some negative effect?

That means that you should drvie it extrra, in my book. If iI had a 917, wouldn't I feel obligated to have it registered for the street? Yes. Yes I would. Good luck. The engine might be a hassle tough. I would look into that 2.2 tpye E that whoever mentioned. |
