Rebuilders of 2.0 engines/heads might be interested in some tech info in the latest Excellence magazine (November 2004), page 161, where tech expert Jim Pasha talks about rebuilding 2.0s to 2.2 with "up to 160 reliable horsepower." He writing about 914 Porsches, of course. Of interest also to waterboxer builders are some comments and photos of cracks in heads around the spark plug holes--welding and then reboring for 12mm plugs. Plus a promise of more info in the future. Richard A Jones Boulder, Colorado |
