i want to replace the engine in my 914 and am confussed by my choices. i thought of the subaru or chevy v8 conversion and i dont think thats for me. im looking at a rebuilt 2.4 6 conversion from motor meister or a built 4 motor of equal hp, which is 170 hp. jake at aircooledtechnology seems to be very busy so i was wondering if any of you knew how much a 914 type 4 motor would cost to build at that hp level.

pick up the phone and call a few of those places to get a ballpark figure for doing a proper rebuild on any 3 of those size engines.....make sure you are sitting down (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif) old used engines, you might get lucky and find one that won't need a rebuild or find one that has been rebuilt not too long ago....it's not going to be cheap..what is your "real" budget? $4K ? $6K ? $10K ? |
