1973porsche914 2.l Rebuilt Enginefreshpaintmegasquirt W Improved Fuel System on 2040-cars
Sun Valley, California, United States
Mileage unknown, reads 58,000. Good running condition with freshly rebuilt 2 liter engine(new pistons/cylinders, main and rod bearings, cam, lifters, gaskets, valve guides, etc) Fuel system upgraded to Megasquirt with modern 43psi side feed injectors, Bosch 911 fuel pump and filter setup, all tuned with Innovate's datalogging/tuning software. 15x8 rims intended for autocross. Entire body cleaned/repaired/painted. Re-lubed CV joints. New clutch, speedo, and throttle cables.
Has minimal interior. Dash is cracked and is covered with one of those temporary carpets. Windshield has crack behind mirror, but is on the inside of the glass, and has not grown for the past 8 years. Paint is new Eurocote, but is race car grade. It was probably decided some time in the relatively distant past to change the car from it's original color of black, to white, due to the added fiberglass body kit. Car was sitting in driveways for the past 20 or so years, with a chevy V6 and a Kennedy adapter kit sitting in parts in the front boot, but never installed. Previous owner/s eventually tossed the whole engine lot in a scrap pile somewhere. I purchased a 914 engine and rebuilt it for this car. The brakes are bone stock. I spent approx. 1000 hours fixing this car up. Repaired rust areas at battery pit, and under seats. I can provide and install at additional cost at end of auction, the below engines: Subaru ej25 $2200 installed with megasquirt2 on stock 914 transmission, Horsepower improvement of about 90hp and similar weight. Subaru eg33 $2800 installed with megasquirt2, but necessitates the use of a boxster transmission and clutch, axels, and shift cable mechanisms, so additional cost for that. This can add up to about 160hp above the stock type 4 engine. Can also install boxster engine and trans set if you like, must negotiate price with salvage yard. Also available: Original 72 911S engine installed for $18,000, bolts direct to original 914 trans. The above engine offerings do not include the engine that is in the car now. iow, I keep it. These cars were designed for boxer engines. Don't ask if I will install your "V" type engine. The only exceptions I will make for other engine installs, are the Mazda Wankel engines, up to the 3 rotors, or a Lycoming type aircraft 4 cylinder boxer engine. I, the seller, am perfectly capable of preforming any upgrade you might want to this, or just about any engine or car. There are regularly some really nice tube frame race cars shown here on ebay. The work done on any of those other cars is well within my skill range. |

Chris Harris brings together the 918 Spyder, LaFerrari, and P1
Sat, Nov 21 2015The Porsche 918 Spyder, Ferrari LaFerrari, and McLaren P1 show that a hybrid powertrain can make for blistering performance despite its electric assist. This trio doesn't arrive on track together very often, but Chris Harris assembled these three stars at the Portimao circuit for a nearly hour-long demonstration of their amazing capabilities. So, which one is quickest around the track? Harris provides an answer with in-car video of all three contenders. His team also goes out of its way to even the playing field by sourcing tires independently from Pirelli for the P1 and LaFerrari. With the technical part out of the way, Harris can start having fun by doing his usual slides during the driving comparison. Tiff Needell and Marino Franchitti also eventually show up to provide the perfect recipe for a track battle in these hypercars. If you don't have the time, skip about 14:25 into the clip just to see the lap times. However, those numbers only tell a tiny part of the story. The whole video is definitely worth a watch.
The pre-race and first in-race report from Le Mans
Sat, 22 Jun 2013The 2013, 90th anniversary edition of the 24 Hours of Le Mans has begun, tragedy marking the opening laps with the death of Allan Simonsen. We're at the track now as a guest of Audi and plan to stay through the evening, and even we haven't been able to find out what caused the accident - the only video is from just after the incident, and beyond the statement from ACO there's been no more news. The Aston Martin in the LM GTE Am class and its all-Danish drivers had taken pole in its class and was one of the favorites to win.
The pre-race report will come first, and even thought we can't spoil the race because we're only five hours into it at the time of writing, we'll put all of the news at the end in case you don't even want the updates.

New details mooted about Porsche's '988' Ferrari rival
Tue, 08 Jul 2014We could be on the verge of a big expansion at everyone's favorite rear-engined German sports car manufacturer. Porsche is allegedly preparing a four-car assault that will be led by a proper challenger to the Ferrari 458 Italia (sorry 911).
Code-named "988," the new model will reportedly feature a mid-engined layout and, get this: a flat-8. Autocar, which has the story, expects that engine to displace about 4.0 liters, while the car itself will draw styling inspiration from the 918 Spyder. 600 ponies and over 400 super-accessible pound-feet of torque should be on tap with the new mill.
Joining the 988's supposed eight-cylinder is a new family of four- and six-cylinder boxer engines that Autocar claims will have a focus on power density and fuel economy. These new mills will be available in naturally aspirated, turbocharged and hybrid forms.
