Keep an eye out for 912E Engine Tin
If anyone knows of or has for sale; 912E engine tin or 912E engine support bar.
Note: I have the cylinder tins and I'm using a 911 style fan with shroud. I really just need the 912E engine tin that closed off the engine bay from road debris Thanks, Matt

Hello Matt,
I no longer have those items but I do have a 912E exhaust system that I have been using on my 912R build. Russell |

Can you tell me more? So you're still using the factory 912E heat exchangers on what motor? Details are appreciated. Pics too please of your 912R

Looks nice Russel although I'd like to see more of your car.
I ordered a fat Performance motor for my build which i'm excited about https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ty-9VRUmrHY Getting tired of bodywork but getting close. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

That FAT engine sounds great. You will love it. I've had mine for ~20yrs and it stills runs strong. Looking forward to following the build. Russ |

Thanks but i just need the tin that closes off the engine bay as the 912E used. I don't need the engine tin, i should have clarified.
I bought a 2.5L Fat Performance Type 4 engine.

Final test fitment of the epoxy primer'd fiberglass 911R fenders. The inside of the fenders have already been painted satin black like a 911R. Note the very subtle R detail at the lower fender behind wheel opening where it meets the rocker panel; [a few 911Rs had this overlap detail in the fiberglass] I did my Stinger 912R build like 911R # 015
The panel gaps are 3mm, and the edge of the fiberglass here has been built up enough to have the thickness of the steel fenders flange which looks nice. There is another world-record breaking 911R rocker detail at the jack point [simply that there was no lead used here to smooth the panel] this saves about 200 grams total both sides just in this location. Suspension parts are blasted and ready for epoxy primer then 3 coats of gloss black urethane. Original steel bumpers will need metal smoothed and pitted areas cut away and replaced prior to epoxy. Fat Performance Engine will displace 2.5L, and be completely balanced and blueprinted. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()
