YEP! Gotta move back to the States ASAP. Family comes first.

I swear I wouldn't sell EVEN just the damn engine for €8000, it is so sweet.
OK. sweet isn't the right word, it is downright NASTY! :D

I used Jake's Annhilator cam(with a SECRET TWEAK!) that was designed for
914 Auto-Xing and added .5 point more CR because the gas here is so much
more better and more available than the States. I can get 100oct just about anywhere.

It has the 911 cooling just because I had never done one on a T4 and wanted to try it
out. Lesson learned about horrible repro parts from some Dude in the Netherlands...

I'll see if I can borrow a video recorder and post a video on Youtube or something.
The throttle response is absolutely amazing and I have built racing engines since 1976
so I am not that easily *amazed*. KUDOs go to Jake for his R&D on the T4 platform!

But, as I said, family comes first and the whole car is for sale for half of what the engine is worth.
