1964 356 polopolus outlaw

I checked in on Dean the other day and he mentioned that he was installing one of his 4 cylinder 911 engines in a customer car. I told him when he had finished with the install to give me a ring so that I could check it out. Well that was today and what a treat it was!

Specs:
1964 356C
2.4L POLO 930/4 dry sump engine
modified S cam profile
Weber 46 carburetors
175 HP @ 6200 rpm
150 mph @ 7000 rpm
901 5 speed with B first gear

Boxed front control arms
911 SC front hubs, rotors
Early 911 rear trailing arms with SC rotors
Boxster calipers f/r

roll cage

The car was amazingly responsive in acceleration, handling and braking. It reminded me of a healthy 911 but with better balance. Truly an awesome ride!
