well, fwiw, my car is running great now (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) I actually touched the heads so I guess my bad luck really got on them good.. like I told Leto, nothing I touch is associated with 'Win' I have a good 1.7 head you are welcome to have Lyle fix for you, too if that helps. if there's anything I can do to help you with either rebuild, just let me know, I'll be happy to do it.... if you need me to haul parts over from Wes'... no problem. Clay - I have a core motor that is fairly complete at my place you are welcome to have to contribute towards Betty's car - TE If I come get it will I actually see the mythical Phantom 914? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif) I have Bill (bandjoey) who offered me a 74 1.8L core motor he has. I am picking it up on Sat. Slits.. I appreciate the offer, but I have a 2.4T MFI core motor sitting in my garage. And I am not going to just switch out the pistons, cylinders, and heads. I am going to tear it down and rebuild the whole bottom end. There was a suggestion to have me do a thread on a six build. I might just do that! |

Clay - The mystical Phantom 914 is resting peacefully on her jack stands within 50ft of the core... and yes, I will let you see it. I know Joey lives around the corner from you, but my offer stands.

Got the motor from Bill... and it is an extremely low mileage motor. Really original.
Pulled the heads and they are off to the machine shop. Motor is complete except for the heads..... Betty is cleaning everything nicely. It is coming along, as long as Wayne stays away from my garage... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif) |
