Blower was teflon stripped and was overdriven and made 18 psi boost at redline, and the static compression was 9 to one. Crazy power. Broke aluminum rods, so went to chrome-moly mickey thompson rods and broke them.

7800 rpm might have been a little too much but I was 24!
OK, I'll play.... This is the heart of my 914-6GT clone.... I'm still collecting parts for my Toad Hall 911 which is being built by the same builder and former Toad Hall driver

Yes, the surgically-inflated lip fad seems to have come & gone, thankfully.

Top of a Boxster perhaps?

There is an aftermarket clear piece for the Boxster/Cayman which is the only reason I can make this guess.

Made just under 300HP, but tuned for a flatter torque curve, so settled on 278... 3.0, with 46 Webers and adequate cams..

Thats my 3.2 boxster S motor. That is what you see when you pull the top open and remove the carpets and top engine access panel.

Yep... That notice concerns me because I imagine it takes a LOT of jizz to clog a shower drain. Unfortunately, this is a problem of international concern.

Okay, I think it's time for a change of pace.

Let's write a Purchase Order for a 917/10 engine.
