    PMO carbs on stock 964 3.6 engine

    Looking for some advice on my car: as it is a '72 s with a nice story and a big part still original paint I don't want to touch the body at all. I have 8" and 9" Fuchs and via this forum found Harry in Germany (close by Belgium) who will make me a set of rsr Fuchs (9" to the front and 8" widened to 11") - meanwhile I have a set of braids with TB's. Suspension wise I am thinking about kw or ohlins coilovers, it has 930 brakes.
    It was converted to coilovers some time ago but there seems to be a fitment issue on the front as coils touch the body so that negative camber is not possible.
    I will try to get some pictures on here, maybe someone knows those coilovers, can't find a brand on them...
    The dilemma is on the engine: I could go back to rsr spec 2.8 or 3.0 and 917 brakes etc, but I am afraid that the total cost will be to high to still drive and enjoy the car, and that it won't be very streetable (I will not track it - it will be a weekend hotrod). It came with a 964 3.6 - 0km when installed - but I don't like the modern look, when you open the hood and see the engine it is a let down to me. So I thought of keeping the engine stock, but with (46?) PMO carbs, a amber engine shroud etc to give it a real cool look. Are there members running this engine set-up? Hp lost with the carbs? Throttle response comparable with itb?
    The itb route is to expensive for me on a not period correct engine... hope to have some feedback to finally decide which way to go...

    Cheers, Nico
