Grady,
Thanks a bunch! Do the throttle bodies or stacks have any specific numbers that I need for authenticity.
I've had the E since 1983 and got the T targa about seven years ago. I haven't done any research on the targa as it was a radio contest win which allowed me to sell my rather scrappy 69 T/S coupe in need of serious restoration -- but that's a whole 'nother story that I'll refrain from posting publicly.
The E is already down to the shell and only rust is under the sill plates at the rear door jambs. I stripped and reassembled the E in '84 but the years of driving it all over California and the midwest have made it ready for another restore -- this time I plan to do it right. Problem is, I disassembled it many years ago and kinda' forgot where everything goes.
I had already purchased many new E parts (dash, guages, trim, carpet, etc.) direct from Europe but they, too, have been sitting in boxes for years. I'm going to pick up a factory Porsche 911E Parts Manual to make it easier and plan to pick up the CD here from Pelican.
I have no idea whether the T #s match and what overall shape, bodywise, it's in -- paint can hide a lot as we all know. Heck, I haven't even checked to see if the VIN was correct for the model year or took a look at the engine/trans numbers -- but everything looks correct. It's been in the garage for some time now and when I got it, all I did was drive it until things started acting up. When you have a bunch of radio station DJs, their crew and their girlfriends driving it all summer long promoting the giveaway, it took a serious beating; especially in the clutch and gearbox department. But for the price of state tax, I can't complain.
I do appreciate the info and am figuring on spending some serious $$ if I decide to make a go at it. I figure if I purchase a longblock and get an MFI set up at a fair price and decide to scrap the E project, I can always sell them. Do you have any thoughts on what an MFI setup should cost?
Thanks again for the response.
Ron
