Ryan -
welcome to the "E" club. I have a new to me 912E that I am restoring as well. The Pelican forums are great and have a lot of information and great people but wanted you to know about a designated forum for 912E owners over at the 912BBS that has a good amount of traffic and lots of information to help you with your restoration. come on over and have a look.
912E Help
Besides myself, there is at least one other person just getting started on their rebuild/restoration. I have the engine out, just split the case today and am getting ready to build out my engine to increased displacement and stroke.
