Hello- I am very "new" to road/autoX with a bug, so I have some questions(dumb?probably) I have a 74 SB that I believe is a 1303 by what I have read on this site- I have a full set of 944 brakes/hubs/rear trailing arms- etc- I am planing on a engine change to a water cooled-
What I am asking I guess is what I have in mind going to be a good base for a good local(only) autoX and hill climb car? I am open to all opions and I would like to say that I am lucky enough to have a pretty good equiped shop(left over from years of dirt track racing) to I am willing to attack almost anything reasonable
thanks very much[/b]

I was hoping for a reply from some of the members that have ome experience - I hope I am on the right track with my thinking and parts so far==
thanks

Well, after reading much more I have changed my mind on the water-cooled engine- I am going the TIV AC instead- good power and not the head aches that comes with the water
So anyone with any opnions would be welcomed on my path to stardom(?)
thanks
