7- The Porsche Engine In Place

The 914 bolted in place (finally).
This is the Porsche engine, converted to upright cooling and fitted with a pair of Weber 34's. I hooked everything up and ran it to get the engineering bugs worked out. This engine was a very sick puppy and came back out and got a complete rebuild to it's present specs. More on this later.

That isn't a good place for an oil cooler! Actually I was beat at this point and tired of trying to find a place to mount it. I just propped it up there and went in the house. The stupid thing is almost as big as the engine! I guess I'll have to pull the dumb thing behind in a trailer. It sort of looks like a Beetle Swamp Boat!
