Hey guys, I've very new to this whole thing. I'm still trying to figure out what is exactly wrong with my 914 (starting and running issue). But whats the possibility or reliability of installing a v8 or v6....other than the immediate install cost. what do ya'll think.

Whats your vision for the car? Going to PCA events? Concours? You may need the Porsche powerplant. Looking to retain resale? Porsche again?
Looking for a car with the power to weight ratio of a Viper, then LS or V8. Subaru transplants are popular and build major power. Adding power, weight, torque has consequences. Modifying the car, breaking OEM stuff etc. Conversions are not cheap! You need $$$ |
