Look like the right list of bits for a 914/6 build Options

[Tdskip]

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!

OK - to try and get myself organized and start hunting for parts at best possible prices (while supporting members here when/where possible) I have taken the list you helped me prepare and started listing the parts source next to the item needed.

Needed item | Sourcing

-engine tin | Fiberglass OK to use?
-oil tank | going with Ben's
-front oil cooler | any recommendations?
-to/from oil cooler lines | going with Ben'sn
-throttle linkage | any recommendations?
-fuel pump | 3.0 911 pump OK I assume?
-fuel lines | custom, or is there a kit?
-engine lid latch relocation bits (due to CIS) | home fabricate?
-flywheel | lighten the 3.0 one or leave as is?
-CDI box | got it covered
-O2 sensor | not needed
-Engine mount | firewall mount best?
-muffler | got it
-thermostat for the oil cooler | got it
-gauges to work with new engine | 3.0 911 tachometer ordered, what other gauges
-Filler neck for the oil tank | Ben?
-Oil dipstick | Ben?
-Oil filter console | Ben?
-19mm master cylinder| | got it covered
-FI harness | Perry Kiehl
-Conversion Wiring harness? | any ideas?
-914-6 trans mid-plate for throttle or some other contraption, not sure w/FI | any ideas?
-Shift Rod modified for headers | Tangerine
-Oil Cooler Fans | got it covered
-Oil Fed chain tensioners | got it covered
-headers or heat exchangers | got it covered

Any input?

In some order;
GRP engine tins are ok and a cheap solution but not as strong ,fit can be questionable,PM Forrest he made a set of clever ones,
oil cooler Setrab,RX7 or similar, ,Bruce Stone had some Merc ones a while back,
fuel lines are Tangerine racing or custom build yourself from truck brakeline tube,
flywheel ...leave that stock,
engine mount..so many out there but thats your call,Maddog,PMS and one member on here makes them...maybe talk to Ben on that.,
gauges mid year 70's 911 ok and mount a separate vdo 52mm fuel gauge in the lower dash,cheaper than a triple gauge conversion...up to you,
engine harness ,only one go to guy on that,pm Perry Kiehl top man makes a great product,
throttle, use stock 911 parts and drill and tap the gearbox housing or buy and expensive conversion kit..again your call,
shiftrod ? spend the coin on a Tangerine conversion...cause it works,mine was a mare to custom build...again up to you,

Just factor in a lot of time and $$$ as mentioned cause there's always this bit and that bit....all adds up even if you buy shit loads on pre-made conversion parts.
All in all a great conversion everytime you drive (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif) .
