Frankensteen is going to Ventura AutoFest
For those that have not followed the continuing saga of "Frank"....it is a 911 2.2 powered Outlaw that was built with the premise of tweaking the shorts of the Q tip crowd......
Last year it showed up with RED 993 wheels and a Type IV (914) motor and custom cooling.....we did burnouts in the lot, drove around and waved at the 356 guys....since it was HOT we duct taped a red an black PORSCHE logo umbrella to the roll bar so as not to get sunburned or to warm our beer....the trans made back home...barely....needed a new Ring and Pinion.....crap.... Since last year....it now has 16x7 and 8 inch Fuchs with 225 and 245 tires and the afore mentioned 2.2/6 with dry sump.......all of which the 356 registry told me was impossible to do. We have done "some" rustoration" and installed a tube frame and tied the rear engine mount into that frame..... See it and weep.....

Did it the cheap way....just got a conversion flywheel from Kennedy Engineered Products.....anything cold.....
The other engine the T=4 actually has more torque,,,,this one doesn't do it until up in the power band....
