New Member Intro - Mark A

Post by Mark A »

Hello everyone,

Just a few words by way of introduction.

I'm Mark, I live in Hove, East Sussex. I've recently acquired a non running project, A US 1973 911 2.4 MFI. I spoke recently with Garry at Classic FX, he pointed me at this forum as a great community for sharing advice and 911 knowledge.

More on my project is for another post, but for now, hello!

Cheers,
Mark

Welcome Mark

Enjoy DDK,
You have one of the best all round standard original engines in the USA 2.4 T MFI. Ask Richard Adams on here how he got over 200bhp from his with only minor tweaks. Lovely when tuned.

Regards
Mike

That's great. Definitely up for squeezing a few more horses out. Garry also said something similar.
