IMG_1122I didn't make it to SLO 🙁 But I have made progress. WOT issue solved and full stroke at the pedal means 97-98 % open at the throttle plates. Now when I rev the engine the response is really quick and responsive. I've got a Web 86b 105 degree LSA cam in conjunction with a LWFW and the motor likes to rev really quick. 

Remote external oil filter is in too and along with the external oil cooler, the oil temp is steady at 180F-ish around town and during normal freeway driving. After 30 minutes of spirited driving the oil temp hangs around 208 degrees. It would be interesting to see where the oil temp settles when ambient temperature rises to mid 80s - 90s in a few months. Though I'm on the coast and so I may have to drive inland to get the hotter weather.

Setting up the Speedster for CHT is next on the list as are four new shocks. The camber compensator still needs to be installed.

I'm going to remove the Fuchs deep six hearts (borrowed from my 912) and replace them with a set of driver condition Porsche 5 1/2" steelies. The steelies are HEAVY. A single steel rim WITHOUT a tire weighs approx 20 lbs where the 6" Fuch rim WITH a 195/65 tire mounted weighs 21 lbs!

I'm going to have to drill 72 lbs (18.1 lbs x 4) worth of holes somewhere to make up for the weight 😄
