Good stuff , Andy. Lessee 1979.....26/7 years old. I got underware older than that...but it prolly smells better.
I out grew my personal punkism at about 22, but 27 is not unheard of.....quite common is this day and age, actually. Prolly trying to impress the boss at work with his management skills/PR work. Not smart enuff to learn to cover his tracks from Andy, tho.....I couldn't either, but am wise enuff not to put myself in that position. Pardon me while I laugh my ass off. BUUHAHAHAHAHA |

Lets keep this to the facts. Fact is SBC V8's suck in these cars.
I think some of you knew I was just kidding. ...right? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) Here's my honest opinion, I think regardless of powerplant you chose car preparation is more signficant than engine configuration or power. There are wickedly fast 3.6 liter 6 cylinder cars that have incredible preperation that I would say almost no V8 could touch on a road course. I'm sure there are some incredible v8's too. I do think some v8 conversions cut a lot of corners, but I have seen some incredible conversions that were right on the money. I wouldnt mind driving either a well done SBC V8 or a six conversion. ...Damn but thats a boring opinion and makes me feel like I'm getting ready to hold hands with you guys and sing songs. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif) I have chosen the 6 conversion route as I want to compete in PCA and POC class events in the future. And if I'm honest I'd rather hear the sweet sound of a well tuned 6 rather than an awesome v8 behind my seat just because I have always wanted a 914-6. If I were to go for a non-Porsche conversion think I'd be looking at a turbo rotary engine or that wicked V8 they put in the Radical SR8. Bottom line I'm a car nut and they are all good. 4, 6, 8, rotary, just do them right and you'll have a cool car! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smilie_pokal.gif) |

Oh yea', and I like both the P powered and the SBC powered 914's for different reasons.
$.02 worth of opinion..... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/huh.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) |

I must have really bunched up some panties for you blokes to go through all this for me (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wub.gif)
Now care to explain the So-cal IP?? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/clap.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/clap.gif) You are right, I am BJ, formerly of Renegade. I'm 26 living in So Cal (camarillo to be more accurate). I spent a few years building V8 914's. I've built some damned nice cars, and fixed some of the Shit that you all seem to assume is all v-8's.

Back in '88, I bought my 2.0 914 to replace the '77 Spitfire that got totalled sitting at a red light. The car was really cool but eventually started making the tap tap tap of rod bearings getting tired. I priced regular 2.0 rebuilds, and after reading about them, wandered by Renegade on my drive home one day. Rode in the owner's 914, said thanks, and proceeded home. Floored the 2.0 getting on the freeway, and almost started to cry, I knew right then that a conversion was in my future, and according to the "brochure", it would be a cheap as a stock rebuild. Parking the car in '91, the conversion was underway. Fast forward to 2004, after moving a couple of times, buying a series of sailboats, getting married and endless other things, my '75 could go back on the road without the CA smog cert. So I dove back into the conversion, talked to the new owners of RH, and tried to do it right. WAY to many $$$ later, the car's my daily driver, and a hell of a lot of fun. I haven't made it to a track, or an AX event yet and I probably could have done a big P-6 for the same $$$, but I really like my car. I've got a stack of parts waiting to work their way into my project, but there's so many things to do in life.
It could have been a six, happened to be an eight, I'd really like to to a Raby T4 for my next one, or maybe a suby... The extra HP makes the car more to my liking, not neccesarily better, just more to my liking. In my eyes they're all still 914's, except Chalon's (just kidding Scott, I wanted a Chalon too) IMHO, almost everyone here is driving, or working on, or dreaming about a custom car, almost stock or way out there, which is what's so cool about the 914. There's so much potential, I'm hooked. I realize that most of the immflamatory remarks in this thread have been made tongue in cheek, for those that weren't, Lighten up! Remember "there is no spoon".

Having recently seen alot of big displacement muscle at the Monterey Historics and the story of the "back yard prototypes" you have to admire people who try something new and make it work. There are examples of attempts so let's call them prototypes often mistaken for hack jobs. For most the goal is to build a GT car, not a car to be barely accepted in the Porsche games or to demonstrate nimble performance. Why compare cars that don't live on the same type of track or may not even care to be on a track? There are too many neglected and often hacked 914's that would benefit from a nice conversion of any type. Other than the concourse owners we are all trying to modify and improve this basic but compelling platform. |

It's a world of laughter
A world of tears It's a world of hopes And a world of fears There's so much that we share That it's time we're aware It's a small world after all There is just one moon And one golden sun And a smile means Friendship to ev'ryone Though the mountains divide And the oceans are wide It's a small world after all It's a small world after all It's a small world after all It's a small world after all It's a small, small world Don't mention it, no thanks necessary. Least I can do. |

damn,, somebody stop the song in my head,,, the little manequins freak me out like "chucky".
8 pages of arguing and my beloved rotary only gets a mention here and there! Where's soloracer at? nevermind,, Rotary conversion guys just seem to keep quiet and keep our opinions to ourselves, it's hard to find understanding. I must remember to offer my car for rides when it ever gets finished. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wacko.gif) I think the lesson of this thread is that 914s are fun when you have more than 180 horse power. And that certain parts of your anatomy will grow if you have a V8! j/k 914 owners with radiators vs 914 owners without, in an all out Paintball War to prove who will rule the 914 world. Oh well I think I better take my medication,,,,, (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/screwy.gif) |
