What's involved in going from 2.2T to 2.2E/S (and what actually is E/S...)?

[al lkosmal]

Tremelune,
well, that is just my description, based on the build, compared to 70/71 stock specs.

911T: compression ratio = 8.6:1
911E: compression ratio = 9.0:1
911S: compression ration = 9.8:1

This build......Mahle 9.8:1 P&Cs, E-cams, SSIs, Sport muffler, 40IDA carbs.... so , a little bit of E & S, with E-cams and S compression ratio......

[Tremelune]

S compression without the super peak of the S cams...Interesting. Anything need to be done to address knock when upping the compression, or did Porsche just detune for marketing purposes?

[icarp]

If I had the choice between an E or S cam I would always choose the S cam .
The myth that the E cam has more TQ is just a myth.
Just my experience with engines on the dyno.

I'd say it is alive................

[al lkosmal]

After Testing/tuning of the 2.2E/S, I performed a warm leak-down test.
looking good.
1 thru 6









This engine was built for a local friend....so i get to deliver it and help with the install....

[al lkosmal]

Just received this 3.0 from Ohio. The owner of the engine is an EFI kit customer. and the EFI was successfully installed.... However, per the installer, the engine history was a bit unknown and it had not been run for some time and unfortunately, when he fired up the engine.....it had a bad knock and metal filings in the filter.........from the description, it sounds like a spun rod bearing or???? really won't know until I tear it down. We shall see.......

Hey Al,
Fun times. Following your 2.7 project with interest. I'm going down a similar path with mine in a few months.
Where are you having case machine work done? I may be able to give you a lead down here in P'Town.
