Kroggers,
your 3.6 looks sooooo bad a$$$$$$$$. Like it a lot.


RRWood,
you gotta tell the whole story around your oil cooler setup. What are you hiding behind that valence, and what are those side scoops doing up there...and there are two of them...


very very cool...

Thank you Midnight911. Just click on my "Garage", and it will show you pretty much everything done to my car. The scoops on either side were purchased when I still had the 3.0 and oil cooler in the fender. I always liked the look, so kept them when I added the RUF valence and Setrab 500 oil cooler.

Sold it for 30k in 2005, I hear the SC chassis was converted into a longnose - then the engine was removed and a 996 CUP MOTOR was installed. Wow. What a weird chain of events.

3.6 conversion on a '82 SC wearing origional paint. I really prefer the sleeper look with no tail and factory finish wheels. Car weighs 2380lbs and is all steel except rear bumper and front spoiler. Will get a FVD hotwire conversion on a 92 964 motor and tuned on a dyno next week.

Mahler,

What is up here. It looks like a single plug dist on a twin plug motor?

I always wondered why others have not used an earlier fan as I believe it moves more air.

Best argument I can think of for a air box it to keep from sucking hot air from under the car. Most do not go to much effort to ensure an effective seal.

You can also see my first rough airbox propotype. Cold air enters through grill in fiberglass tailbase. I think it is "better air" than what is available closer to the throttle body. And for a car that is mostly for track use (occasional, loud street driving) my car has European headers and Phase 9-type mufflers.http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1132178243.jpg

I'd been holding off on adding to this thread until I had the car running.

Its a 78 SC, RHD, non sunroof coupe. Its generally very scruffy although I am improving that slowly, I call it 'The Shed'

I've fitted a 95 993 motor, patrick flywheel, sachs power clutch, single pulley. Not sure where the exhaust came from, motor was in an early car before I bought it and it came with the exhaust.

Scruffy ATS wheels have winter tyres on, in spring I'll be fitting a set of 15 inch Fuchs.

CF tube was an easy fit - with all the extra stuff removed - IIRC (been 6 years since I sold the car)

i have removed allot. did you use the old engine mount or the original 993 mount?

Burgundyben: I like your setup with the engine removal. What are you attaching the rope ends to in the photo with the motor hoist?

What I guess you lift up the car to the height you need, then put the truck jacks under, remove the engine hoist, then slide the engine out? Pretty slick.
