    This is a Porsche 911 restoration that was abandoned in 1994 after being converted to a race car. My plan is a twin turbo Subaru EZ30 porsche engine swap with 400+ HP to the wheels. Stay tuned.

    I like that you do not sterilize you content. You are a very good narrator. I have watched every episode and look forward to your content. Very informative.!!!!

    Wow.., that roof surprise. That’s an odd duck. As a fellow 912E guy on the east coast, I endorse this awesome swap. If my 3.0L should decide to implode, I’ll seriously consider this swap.

    Car is starting to look awesome. Great job man. I always say this, I wish we had these cars here. I might just get a kit car form our neighboring country and build it on a beetle chassis. Aaaand....someone needs to tell my why the 10 and 13 socket and spanner is always missing - I have like 4 of each....

    That roof will be a pain to repair without getting any warping… unless you are planning to swap the whole panel and delete the drip rails Blasphemy/Ruf style anyway? everybody needs more scope creep on their (already massive) projects! 😅

    Ground Flat drill bit for cleaning out the plug weld holes of paint. Top tip from Fitzee’s Fabrications.

    Great video. I like this project. If you find yourself in a similar situation where you have plug welds with paint in the way, I have found one of those little drill mounted wire brushes really helpful (the ones where the bristles point forward)

      I didn't show it, but I actually ground the inside with a deburring tool and it worked OK.

    Random fact .. the 911 and the vw type 3 share the same lower hood latch... and interior dome light 😂

    Michael, awesome content, and I dig the music! There, how’s that for a positive comment? FYI,we are getting a lot closer to having our Factory Five 818 powered by the Subaru EJ253 ready for the road and registration. Unfortunately our first hurricane of the year is heading towards Tampa again.

    I hope it lands as a constructive criticism, as it’s the intention of this comment. Very bad choice of music. I couldn’t finish the episode because of it.

      It's a bummer your computer didn't come with a volume knob.

    • @rennch.
      @rennch.  Рік тому +3

      What you would learn, if you had to create content for the world, is that there's no single choice of music that I can choose that doesn't annoy somebody. So consider yourself fortunate that it's only happened this one time.
