POLO 4 cylinder 911 engine and 1967 912 almost done

There is a very good chance the car will make Rennsport. My ticket is for the Blue 3 parking lot.

I agree, a 912 or 914 is perfect for one of these. Killer job... hope you do make RR, will look for you.
Spoke with Dean a couple of days ago, he'll deliver mine while we're there.

Wowzer, those combo gauges are amazing. Is that cylinder head temp on there too? Guessing they're a custom from Palo Alto or similar?

North Hollywood. I'm sure Palo Alto does fine work also. North Hollywood is easier for me to get to. Yup, head temp.

Hope to have it on the road tomorrow. Rennsport not in the cards.

Still a couple of days to work out kinks, Chris... hope it makes it, but you're coming regardless, yes?
Looking great, how did you make the 912P?

I hope you can make it as well. Looking good Chris.

Thanks for all the support. I wish I'd had 1 more week. I've got about 75 miles on it now. It has a couple teething issues that are being worked out. Too rich ecu programing. Like 8 to 10 mpg, too rich. This is not a 427 big block as far as I can tell. Richard is sending me a update next week. We forgot to take out the 914 speedo gear in the transmission. We replaced it today. Still not quite done seating the brakes. We replaced the rubber and chrome bumperettes on the rear to all chrome. I will do the fronts tomorrow morning before driving to High Plains Raceway. The rear torsen bars need to be reset. I think it's 3/4 to one inch too low. Some think it's fine. It needs a piece of rear tin added to the back of the 911 tin. I have a hole about 6 inches long front to rear and the width od the engine to fill. The drivers seatback adjuster slips sometimes. It needs to come apart. We did the passenger seat. It had 40 year old grease in the teeth that was hard as a rock. This one probally has the same issue. It needs a good professional buff to give the paint some new life. The rear deck was done before adding the badges and grill. I want the rest of the car to look like the deck lid. This winter it will get heat exchangers welded to the headers as they seem to be the right size. None of this is big stuff. It will get done in due time. So I look forward to meeting many of you next spring, summer and fall.

PS- The 912P badge. There is a fellow in California that makes or did make 912S and 912R badges. I think I searched on the Pelican site and found him. I took one of his 912R badges and made the R into a P.

I put a few pictures in a album to update a bit. More to come down the road.

Going to be putting a Polo 2.55 in the 356 that I just bought, OUTLAW!
