I hope to be returning, 914 Less for about 2 years Options

[drive-ability]

I left 914 ownership when my black V8 powered car burned in the Walmart parking lot some 2 years ago. I've been driving a Mercedes CL65 AMG as a replacement, but it's time to return.
I'm trying to make a deal on a project car being built in Orange County Ca. and hope to get the deal done soon.
The MB is nice but nothing is quite like a 914. Surely the new project is going to have more than 4 cylinders but less than 12 like the MB.

The Kennedy adapter for the Boxster transaxle to LS is $2k without a clutch kit. You can use the stock clutch set up from the boxster or you can go with a aftermarket clutch. Kennedy gets $1k for the clutch and pressureplate .
You will also need a LS small high torque starter.

If I was you I'd keep the G50 it is a far stronger transaxle.
The shifter set up on your car looks like its well made and will work great. Go look at the Ultima and GT40 kit car sites. They all use G50 transaxles and have some great shifter set ups.

Bob,
Thanks for the input, and the idea to visit the GT 40 sites is fantastic. I am used to being able to hammer down the throttle so it would be easy for me to shred the G-466 If its not up to the task.
I'll see how it stands up (G-466) in the GT-40 sites.
