so i have a dumb question.. i have my engine torn down to the heads and case and was my cylinders (i think) are kinda rusty (the little fins on it)
if i wanted to get a new cylinder/piston kit yada yada... can i get a "big bore" 96mm kit? I didn't know if going with the big kit would require any modifying of the heads or case or something.. or if it would "bolt up" just like the stock parts. pardon the noobness (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |

Based on that I would recommend not taking the heads off and just putting the engine back in the car after welding. New rubber hoses, fuel lines, and stuff is great. You might also want to do new motor mounts. The ones near the engine are cheap and much easier to get to when the engine is out. The rear mounts on the tranny can be replaced with 911 "sport" mounts. Aftermarket ones usually costs $35/each whereas 914 mounts cost like $70/each.
