I don't mind having a spirited engine with a higher than 6k redline, but it should pull nice from 3K.
I do NOT want a car that that is an undrivable, over cammed, PITA on the street.
I may one day do an DE/AX, but that said I've owned it for ten years and I still have never wanted to do one. I drive mostly country roads, rarely get stuck in traffic and I don't go faster than 100mph. I would like to be able to go 75-85mph all day long if I go to a show. It will be my summer DD, but I only drive about 5k/per year.

The car: 914 narrow body with 205/60-15, 5 bolt 6" fuchs, brembo (alfa) calipers w/ SC size pads, vented rotors, stock sways, stock 914/901 trans w/ 911 cv's, other than that a pretty stock car.

Engine (so far): 40 webers, stock rebuilt 3.0 bottom end, 95mm 9.7cr pistons (above pic), stock big port '79 SC heads, new head studs, MSD 6al and coil, /6 conversion clutch, 1-1/2" 914 headers with a 2 into 1 freeflow muffler.

I may one day switch to PEFI, so I don't want a whole lot of overlap in the cam. I'm totally aware that PEFI doesn't add HP, that is a sum of the parts. I would either build a single TB system or gut 40 zeniths (sell the webers) for TB's. I'd really only do this for drivability and gas milage, plus the programable ignition curve.
I don't care about originality. I've also thought about twin plugging the heads and doing the extra gasket trick, but most likely will just be running the single plug.

Debating cam choice.
I also have 2.7 3 bearing towers, if that helps in my decision about my buddies new, 3 bearing 464/465 WEB cams. If it's a bad choice I'll pass and get my 4 bearing SC cams reground by Drcam.
Willing to upgrade my springs if required.

I also have new stock rod bolts should I upgrade to ARP?

My background is I owned an aircooled VW shop, I've built countless stock and performance Type 1 and 4 engines. I do most of my own work. I rebuilt a couple of stock /6 engines in the 90's, I have Wayne's book, but I don't have much more experience than that with 911's.
