Correct Charles. Compression is two different animals. We are talking about static compression here. Mine, at 10.1:1 will make it harder for the starter to kick the rotating mass into motion when you...

True Leon. My problem is the coming down to see you peeps at sea level. :rolleyes:
It broke over time. Heat cooling cycles do that. Very common in Porsche 911 SC 3.0 liter motors.
Dave Rebello likes compression. I had to talk him down from 11:1 and remind him I live at 4500ft and regularly drive through a 7000ft pass and down to sea level.
I doubt that's your problem Herman. This sounds like a job for Gary Cook. Sorry I didn't get back to you on Facebook. Working 60-70 hours a week lately.
My two favorite cars.

Some PLN shots...
Julio! Quit looking at the gauges and drive! :-)
I was there today. They were busy but Dave said "racing season is over" so he may have time to finish other projects. To be fair, everything has to be as planned for his timeline to work. All core...
Digital approach to an analog problem...
Not Les's thing. I'm amazed he has a website and admire him for not getting caught in the digital trap.
Use the phone.
I sold a set of Libres for $600 + shipping a few years ago but the value has dropped out because you can't find tires, especially performance tires for the 14" wheels...
Eric doesn't mess around. He is likely to have them back to you within a few days. When you talk to him, tell him Rob said "anytime you can get me that price for those Audi A4 Porterfield R4S Pads,...
Gary built it. Take it to Gary before it makes a popping sound...
The aforementioned Eric is Eric Shea at PMB Performance (Search by that name).
He uses new pistons, none of the rebuilders will. They will look like jewelry when you get them back.
Now there's a familiar name...
Another PLN shot. This one with Porsche...
On a much less vintage note, here's some Nismo help with LeMans since we are in the week...
This is cool...
As original as that looks. I would not touch the carb swap idea.
Newman and Redford on set...
I'd guess that Rebello is his machine shop. It's mine and he knows a bit about Z cars so... 8-)
I've seen Leon's Megajolt/EDIS L2X motor running. I've never seen a steadier idle in a carburated Z and I've been around them for 35 years. Dead on accurate. I understand the argument for a stock...
Apparently a VW fan too!
Seen your neighbors cat lately?
