Default Engine Stand

Who's got the community engine stand these days? If it is open and no one has any immedate plans for it I would like to throw some money in the pot to use it for a couple weeks during my SC project

I think DougE has next dibs for his head stud issues, but check with him just in case.

So what the verdict with the motor?? Are you going to revive the SC, or are you going for the 914/3.0 transplant?

Eric - yes, I have the stand in my garage now and am planning on doing my drop soon ( ie, by the middle of November). Not sure who has dibs on it after me but I hope to be done with it by the middle of January.

Now for the rest of the wolves out there that smell blood, I will be posting details on the drop soon but right now I'm shooting for 11/15

Hey Rick
Not exactly.......enigne is in the car, but I need to have the intercooler welded to fit the Carrera intake. We cut the intercooler a couple of weeks ago. We also need to set up the Motec. I'd love to be out there with this great weather.....
