Basically it comes on cam around 4000K and will pull to 9 plus if I am willing to take it there. Other things to be aware of is that valve and carb tuning are critical on these motors and they prefer and OPEN exhaust. IF you already have not read Pelican Parts Forum, go there and Rennlist.
The Weber 2.7 motors get RPM NOW! and are true to the original RS sound and fury, for a dual street track car I would honestly go with a 3.2 motronic, easier to maintain, more torque, flatter power band. But for a purist 2.7 is where it is at.
I have been out of the PCAR club racing scene for many years and really do miss it. Like you I started with too much car and never really got that good, but had a blast doing it.
Basics on mine:
1970 911T, slight flare to run 16 7's and 8's
Full cage tied to front a rear suspension
2.7 as above, RS jugs, time certs etc etc
Adjustable Koni's, bigger torsion bars and sways, adjustable spring plates.
SC slotted rotors
901 gearbox (lighter but fragile) short shift kit with "airport" gears
RS style gutted interior
Paint is rough, but it was built and was a steetable track toy
I have owned it since 1984, 2 engine rebuilds and more $ than I dare add up. Built it with my dad and grand dad and my boys will learn to race in it. Props on the Alpine, friend race a Tiger...it was a handful!
Once you get yours, if you have any questions my amateur knowledge can help with hit me up. Oh and also owned a 2nd gen Miata. WAY easier way to play the cone game with almost equal smiles. Junior Pilots in my squadron used to give me S#$%, offered to run against any of them in autocross with it or break out the real race car. They shut up!
