I have a line on a great 914, but...
The good: 1) Its a 914 (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif) 2) strong battery box and longitudinals 3) 5 bolt wheels 4) SC front brakes 5) 914-6 rear calipers 6) bolt in cage 7) Good paint with GT style flares 8) Matched Konig seats The Bad: Car had a 2.4 drysump 4 that the current owner removed and put in his other 914. Now the car has no motor. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/headbang.gif) I think I would prefer a nice type iv - anywhere from 2.0-2.4 liters. Who/where are the shops/people that build "quality" motors. Not looking for a grenade here. Ideally would want b/w 120-140 hp. IT would be for a car that would be driven to/from Driver's ed events and autocrosses. Also, any quide on prices would be nice. The last type iv I had built was almost 10 years ago. A great 2056! I know there are elements out there that would say "6" it. I think the money is too much for a 6 conversion. Plus I like the torque of a "big" four Located in the east, if that tilts any suggestions... |

I'll create anything you need. If I don't have an engine similar to it in my database, I'll design it.
But it will take 9-11 months and won't be cheap because it has 80 hours of my life dedicated to its birth. My engine kits are both cheaper and faster ways to get a RAT inspired engine. The kits are based on the best combinations I found over the years for temperatures, power output, power band and ease of assembly. Since we do all the machining and balancing a 15 year old can assemble it with my video and directives. (has been done before) |
