well it's finally here, one number off from my COA. I at least have a period correct case and the parts to put a correct -6 engine together (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
finding one so close to what is said to be in the car from the factory is amazing alone I think Attached thumbnail(s) |

Thats my buddy's welding skills, Yes I could have done it but it would have been alot more grinding on cleanup or a hole or two to fix.

That's Cool (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) . CoA's can be wrong on these Numbers. My CoA said 4418 ( not far off from you), but the car came with 4444. There was no reason or record of changing it.
I wish I had kept that Un-number'd 914-6 Case I had a few years back. At least I know it went into a Real -6 well it's finally here, one number off from my COA. I at least have a period correct case and the parts to put a correct -6 engine together (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) finding one so close to what is said to be in the car from the factory is amazing alone I think |

I know a guy that has two unstamped Mag cases but he's not great at following thru so I went this route. He refered to them as replacement cases.

Back at it today, In order to keep cross contamination from the rotiss. to the car a little cleanup was needed.
Yellow for safety of course. You did'nt specify color Joe (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Attached thumbnail(s) |
