Re: Cruising Speeds
Gawzner, I shift at 4000 rpm to 4500 rpm. It may be a legacy (pun intended) of my driving experience with the VW WBX but it just sounds right. It may also be as a result of the gear spacing: shift

Re: Upset with Hobert!
...snip ...snip That's right, he is running a company. If your credit card is denied, then ANY company will not ship you your order! He is not in the credit business, nor should he waste his staff

Re: oil pan
Thanks! Very informative post. Anyone looked into the Amsoil dual remote filter system, adds about 1.5 qts capacity which would make up for 'simply' slicing 2" off the bottom of the pan? Bonus is you

e other is a 2.7 tx6 complete with harness and computers 92000 miles I have heard that the 2.7liter ER27 six is best avoided. I also seem to remember Hobert Kennedy saying something similar.

Re: 6 cylinder
I haven't fitted it yet, and it may be quite a while before I can afford to move on the installation, but I do have an EG33 engine from an SVX waiting to go in. Why bother with an EJ18, 20, 22 or 25

Re: Syncro conversion website
The 912 is the early 356 powered 911. The 912E is the 70's model with the Porsche 914 engine (which is actually a VW type 4 engine, with a bit more agression (but basically the same)) Allan

Re: Upset with Hobert!
Just my opinion here. I don't think it's a good idea to use the Subaru-vanagon list to beat up Hobert. The amount of work he has to do must be stupendous and he takes his time to graciously answer

Re: Upset with Hobert!

Re: 6 cylinder
The SVX will use the same adapter and motor mounts as the 2.2. The wiring is similar to 2.2 but does require a speed sensor. The 230 horse would be rough on the trans if abused. We plan to try one

Re: Syncro conversion website
Nevah! It's California plates are hanging in the garage, car is top notch, except for engine. My fault, redid heads/rings two years back and used up what little was left in the mains. Keep checking
