I have got a very good hint for you to keeping the nice old DOHC Engine in good shape with todays ultra dry eco fuels: Use 1:100 API TC two stroke oil / fuel mix as regular driving fuel, that keeps the old fuel-system gaskets, rubber parts, alloy parts etc... and cast iron metal surfaces of those vintage engines in excellent shape...and it also lubricates the valves and upper piston regions. Most Porsche vintage owners in Germany do so :) Also keeps carbs and tank clean and rustfree
Here in Australia, there is product called Valve Master which is an upper cylinder lubricant and is a necessity if you have a classic car designed to run on leaded fuels. Avioid at all costs ethanol added fuels which have had reliability problems even with new cars.
perfect, superb resto, good on ya bro!

Was that the car that was in "European Car" Magazine in their April 2003 edition, page 70?
