Good morning, can we pretend for a minute that I was going to do a 914/6 build with a 1974 that is already missing its engine. Further, can we imagine that I would be trying to build a car that would be used rather than showed, and that building a clone and/or a "correct" car is not a goal. The goal would be a well balanced, reliable and sorted out car for backroad touring use.
Does this look like the necessary bits? -2.7 or 3.0l engine with CIS (have this) -engine tin -oil tank -front oil cooler -to/from oil cooler lines -throttle linkage -fuel pump -fuel lines -engine lid latch relocation bits (due to CIS) -headers -flywheel -ECU -CDI box -O2 sensor -Engine mount -320i front brakes since the extra horsepower probably deserves it Edit - adding these from Cario and Defianty muffler thermostat for the oil cooler gauges to work with new engine Filler neck for the oil tank Oil dipstick Oil filter console Six muffler 19mm master cylinder FI harness (missed that one) Edit - adding from Lucky9146 Conversion Wiring harness? 914-6 trans mid-plate for throttle or some other contraption, not sure w/FI Shift Rod modified for headers Oil cooler thermostat Oil cooler shroud Oil Cooler Fans Oil Fed chain tensioners Edit - adding from mb911 headers or heat exchangers Am I missing anything? I did try searching and reading prior discussions. Thanks! |

If you're sticking with the CIS and want O2 sensor, you'll need 1980 or newer CIS controls.
That was the first year that used an O2 sensor to feedback mixture control |

That was the first year that used an O2 sensor to feedback mixture control Ah, my systems pre-date that so I can drop that from the list unless it is a worthwhile upgrade. Do the later CIS systems with the O2 sensor work a meaningful amount better? Thanks! |
