Howdy,
I havent really updated anyone about the status of this project, this is because I have been trying to decide in a direction to go with it.
The plan is to pull the body, strip it, paint it a factory color (black) keep the body metal stock, porsche seats, some LM style wheels, the turbo 2332cc efi that is sitting in the garage with a superbeetle, 4 speed transmission.
Heres some of the engine specs:
- auto linea case
- superflo 1 heads
- scat 84mm porsche journal crank
- corillo H beam rods
- ceramic lifters
- HD aluminum tapered pushrods
- 1:4 Autocraft roller rockers
- slipper skirt pistons with total seal rings
- nikasil cylinders
- T3/T4 hybrid turbo
- electromotive efi
- turbo grind webb cam 112 lc
- stock FI shroud with thermostat
- type 4 oil cooler
- hi flow heater boxes
I have all the dry sump goodies but am worried about getting the oil up to temp fast, running a thermostat didd'nt help in the past beacuse of the extra volume of oil in the 911 tank I was using. I might put it together wet sump then later add the dry sump with a smaller tank.
I am still on the fence about the transmission, I would put a 915 in it but I dont want to hack the pan up. Once its apart I plan on doing some serious measuring. I have a 901 in the gold car, I am not happy with the dogleg pattern.
Maybe someone from this forum can come up with a better transmission choice?
I have started sandblasting, paint stripping and zinc coating, I have all the replacement metal and am ready to start the messy stuff.
Bryan
