Post cam replacement upon carb conversion

Hi guys,

I have been reading through my log book of records that came with my old 912E from the prior owners. I have about two inches of paperwork.

Anyway, when I bought the car, as a Porsche know-nothing (which is about where I still am!), the car had been converted from the injection to a 32/36 single Weber setup-the one with the octopus like intakes.

Well, as my knowledge has grown a wee little bit, I came to look to see if the cam had been changed to a carb-specific one at the time of the swap. From the records, this does not appear to have been done.

So, here's where I am today. I replaced the 32/36 last year with a set of freshly rebuilt 40mm Webers. Presently, I'm considering ordering a set of the velocity stacks from CB performance (any opinions on that matter?).

My car also has a Permatune installed. 009 Distributor, blue coil, etc. Nothing fancy.

Should I opt to have a more appropriate cam installed? Any suggestions?


As always, guys, I appreciate the help a lot.

Best regards,

David Cardone
