Some more updates on some of the parts soon to be available.
2.8L upgrade.
The photos attached above are the parts available for the earlier 911 engines to upgrade to 2.8L. Included in the 2.8L kit is a new camshaft. The Rod is longer and lighter than any other currently available for a 2.8L upgrade. Same for the piston. The piston pictured is for a dual plug head. These are the parts we supplied to Jeff (home built) for his 73 911 engine.
2.9L upgrade.
These parts are currently in prototyping and we should see these in the next 2 weeks. A new longer, lighter rod, a new Piston for dual plug head, and a new camshaft are included in this upgrade kit.
3.4L kit
This upgrade kit includes a new rod, and a new Piston. We have also designed a new piston for single plug heads to be an alternative to the early wedge type piston design. A new camshaft design is in development for this kit. This engine upgrade has been lacking for modern components for years.
3.8L upgrade
This is currently in development and should be completed by months end. A new Rod, Piston and camshaft will be available.
964 Camshaft.
This camshaft will be our new version of the venerable 964 cam used in so many engine upgrades.
We felt that many of the current kits available for these engines have not kept up with the changes in modern design. Many of the substituted parts are copies of factory parts giving no increase in the engines efficiency. We have focused on component weight, friction reduction and air management to gain back some of the engines performance lost in these air limited engines. Customers have been limited to choices with most engines built using the same parts. We felt its about time these earlier 911 air cooled engines had some new parts.
All of the kits can include upgraded cranks, cylinder heads and other options we currently offer.
