It's the end of the build and the start of the drives! Well, I've been driving it for a while. My 1974 Porsche 914 LE Bumblebee is finally complete...but not before giving me one last hurdle to overcome. Check out the driving video plus amazing drone and car-to-car shots on Utah's famous mountain twisties shot by ‪@TannerSeymour‬

Congratulations on completing your project. It’s been fun watching your progress and seeing that even the experts like yourself can have challenges and times.

Thanks! But I’m far, far from an expert. Just a guy who’s juuuust nuts enough to take tools to his classic Porsche :)

Another nice video Van! Your problem with the engine sounded very familiar to me. I had almost exactly the same problem with my 1.7 (1971) engine. A lot of work was done during the overhaul, including line boring, and finally, after opening the block three times because the crankshaft was not turning properly, I switched to a "fresh" casing. Did the job for me, and when I watch your video, for you too! Looking forward to your next big one, so keep up the good work!

Yeah, not fun rebuilding the engine 3 times, but i guess the third time is the charm!

Great Video Ian! I really enjoyed watching your Bumblebee come back to life! Sad to see it go but a 914-6 is over the top cool! Hope to see some good videos on that build! Cheers!

Thanks. Yep. Already started on the 914-6 content. I want to wait until I have a few episodes banked before releasing...

Dude, you've been in UT for a couple years and already have a ski injury? (I saw the knee brace in the driving footage.)
@IanKarr
@IanKarr Месяц назад
Ha! Believe it or not, that wasn't a ski injury. I had a quick surgery to remove a floating bone bit which made me see stars...

Congrats on finishing the project! Even this video contains so much interesting and good info! Glad the 2056 Engine build has noticeable performance gains compared with the stock 2.0L. Can't wait to have my rebuilt engine back in my car!

Great video ... loved the road video, really great location shots and drone video! Thanks for putting it all together. I remember when the Bumble Bees and Creamsicles hit the dealerships ... the paint never looked that good! Well done, Ian! Looking forward to the -6 story!

I agree the 2056 has extra!! torque??
@IanKarr
@IanKarr Месяц назад
Definitely. Feels like about a 15% improvement in low end torque and maybe the same in HP.
