My Son (on a whim) has brought a 1972 998 with some modifications. Most notably a 1293 engine! It a smart looking car with all the usual rusty areas having been sorted.
I have to admit however that I'm a bit lost with all the jargon and having searched the intraweb thing have decided there is just too much info to take in. I'm hoping getting a basic understanding the mods will help me understand what he has brought as I have to be honest he is loosing me a bit.
I'm a simple bloke who like simple answers so I can understand the purposes of something therefore.....
Can anyone help me please in simple 'mini for dummies' english what the following mean?
1. 'Race spec big valve cylinder head'
2. 'fully flowed'
3. 'ported with all new valves'
4. 'Keith Dodd 1.5 forged rockers and double springs'
5. '286 Kent camshaft'
6. 'gearbox 3.1:1 final drive, with added centre oil pick up'
You assistance is much appreciated.
Cheers
A confused Dad
