Perci Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 When I 'blowed up' my 2.4mfi I replaced it with a used 2.0 carb. Never really noticed a power difference. You can rebuild a 2.2 up to a 2.5 as a project, but if the studs pull on the 2.7 the block might be kaput. Most rebuilders won't warrant a 2.7 rebuild. Good luck which ever way you go.

coldstorageunit Posted May 8, 2017 Author Share Posted May 8, 2017 Thanks guys. I've PM'd Don to inquire about the engine a little more. There was nothing in his pictures showing the fuel delivery side so I sent a note to see if he had the MFI or Carbs as well. And for clarity's sake, when he says it is sold as a core only he means that he doesn't warrant its running condition correct? Quote Link to comment
ErikA Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 I'm guessing that's the case! Quote Erik 2001 911 Turbo X50 1980 911SC - Black, 3.2 litre short stroke SOLD! 2002 BMW M3 - Carbon Black over Cinnamon Link to comment
Perci Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 Usually that means no ancillary items like alternator, carbs,etc. You should ask if was running when last used, and if it turns over by hand.

coldstorageunit Posted May 11, 2017 Author Share Posted May 11, 2017 Anyone ever had to repair the rear inner quarter panel skin before? I have a healthy amount of rust on the inside rear wheel housing under the quarter panel. There doesn't seem to be any repair panels available from the usual place to address this.
