Finally getting my 914/6 together and one question I don't think I've seen asked is what tank is best in your alls opinion. Stock/reproduction oil tank or go real cheap just use a 911 oil tank( will work fine ?)(just gonna have to figure out how to mount it?) Don't be that cheap! or get a Peterson 16 qt up front and be done with it ? More oil the better? Dropping in a 2.8 later may switch to a 3.6. Is it all about $ or How nice you want it? or size of motor and what ya going to use it for. It's going to be used 95% of the time as a weekend street car and it might see a DE a handful of times in it's life. Thanks for any insight into this decision.

Unless you are building an original 914/6 to show I would get one of Ben's tanks.
They have more oil capacity, are more thermally conductive and are cheaper than the PMS or OEM Porsche tanks. As others have indicated a 911 tank will NOT fit in the original 914/6 location with modification. |
