"Funding my obsession one nut at a time"
Finally got my tach working after swapping my 2.2T engine for a 3.0SC with PMO's and an ignition system called Elf-Ignition. Huge amount of thanks to Bob Ashlock at Tach Adapt for beiing soooo patient and diagnosing my issue remotely, which turned out to be a self inflicted wiring issue.
Take a pic of the interior to show yours at this forum. Today is a rainy day.... And working day.
Well not so much today since this "project" started last month with a small exhaust leak and turned into a case of "while I'm in there." Either way, R+R'd the heat control valves and these were sitting on the front porch today when I got home.

Today I prepped the Yellow Car for transport to its new owner. Time to move on to the next...
So I pulled out the work horse 2.5L, put it on an engine stand, and gathered all my 914/6 sheet metal, oil cooler, and clutch out of storage. Time to put my first Porsche back on the road ... 1973 914/6 conversion that I built back in high school ... drove the car to prom ... sold it and built my first 911 ... bought it back two years ago from the same guy I sold it to back in 2006.
Funny thing about the 2.5L is that I originally built it for a 914/6 project. I ended up selling that unfinished project and putting the motor in the Yellow Car. Now it's finally going in the middle where it was built to go all along.
The non-intercooled 3.2L turbo motor just sits, but the 1975 Carrera it's destined for (thanks, Dad) needs some love and attention before it gets the new motor.
