Another year gone by, Spent many weekends drifting.
Decided to update this profile. At thistime im 24 and I finally actually did some work on the 914 in the past 6 months as it had been sitting for 5 years.
Tires are now 255 40 17's front and 285 35 18's in the back. Fenders are now fiberglass and wider. Engine is the same. Did the bodywork and paint in my garage and it turned out great!
Below is my old profile info.
This is a 73 914 Porsche that I bought when I was 15. Im 18 and have done numerous modifications to the car. It has a 911 front suspension, 5 lug conversion on the rear, Pagrid racing brake pads with 911 A calipers on the front and vented rotors all the way around.
Suspension is stock sway bar up front with larger torsion bars, and 180lb springs in the back with Koni reds all the way around.
The engine is a 350 sbc that has been bored out .030 over with a mildish camshaft (2k-7k powerband..), HEI dizzy for drivability and reliablility, Edelbrock RPM intake manifold with a Holley 600 (soon to be replaced with FI for fuel economy and tuning ablity), Shorty headers with Magnaflow mufflers. Then the limiting factor is stock smog heads, but even with that, the 240 RWHP and 275 RWTQ (dyno'd) pushes the 2400 lb car pretty well.
Cooling is done by a Griffin radiator up front with outlet on the hood for better cooling and aerodynamics.
Wheels are 16x7's with Kumho 225 50 16's all around soon to be replaced by Boxster 17's with 255 40 17's on the rear and 225 45 17's on the front with Kumho 711 tires for the street with Hoosers for the track.
Did I mention my purpose for this car is track? Also a sleeper/rat rod on the street... No one knows what the heck it is, and generally stay as far away from it as possible!
