It started out as a project car. A good deal presented its self and I couldnt pass it up. I also own a 1974 914 I drive regularly. I always wanted a 911 but they were always outside of my reach.
To answer how it sounded, when I would start the engine the cam chain would make some noise until the oil pressure came up and the noise would go away. Of course I was getting the CE codes that kept pointing to the actuator being bad and when I would turn the solenoid on and of it wouldnt make any difference in the motors idle. Reading all of the horror stories about the IMS going out and destroying the motor, I started worrying and decided it may make the difference between selling or becoming an expensive mistake.
So here I am. I think I am going to have to keep it for a while, just to make sure everything is okay
