New to Porsche...what to do?
I have recently purchased a 1970 911T. It's a beautiful car which has been given the RS replica treatment. It has the 2.2 w/ webers which is starting to show it's age. It runs good but the last compression test was weak (120's) and it does smoke a little when cold.
I found a local P wrench who is obtaining a '70 E w/ MFI (90,000mi) and will be parting out. He said it hasn't run for 10 years and will call me when he picks it up and gets it running.
My questions are: Should I look into rebuilding my existing engine$$? If the E motor has good compression and leak down what is it worth? Will sitting for 10 years make it a risk? If I take the E motor should I convert the webers?...decisions...decisions.....
PS...This is a great BBS and I have learned a lot from you guys already!! Thanks!
