With that number, you could probably sell it, use the proceeds to build something more powerful for your replica car...

Noah,

That's what I thought ...


Paul,

That's the plan! I want to build a 3.0 or a 3.5.

Nice number.

I just assumed with the 2.9L displacement that you had an aluminium case.

Noah,

Great minds think alike! I've got a copy of the "Carrera RS" book at home.

Do you know if there's a '73 RS registry?

Matt

I just sent an email to an RS collector here in San Francisco regarding your motor. I'll let you know if he has any interest. He keeps track of several others around the country, he might know is anyone is looking.

It's that hot noisy thing with all the wires and hoses in the back of your car. Geez, even I know that.

Maybe if it has enough history with it, it would be better to hold onto it?
