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.

I have a both a LT1 & an LS1 ready for conversion. Have not driven either one. Bought a suby & really lost my desire to finish my LS1. Ended up with an LT1 914 project in another trade. Hopefully I'll get one finished. LOL! Probably going to sell them both at some point. Hard to beat a v8 914. It is a completely different ball game. My LS1 v8 started with a Buick 215 v8. Not a overly powerful v8 but all aluminum. Was a serious blast but I was never happy with that setup. So I took the plunge & picked up the LS1. It's patiently waiting in my shop for me to get off my ass (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)
