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.

You misunderstood me. If you want the most powerful of the FOUR's ( going BIG (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif) ) You will have to pay somewhere north of $15k. We've even seen the $22k price quoted here for the, "all the bells and whistles", MassIVeā¢ FOUR. A 3.6 will run between $7-10k, plus the $2-4k in conversion parts. I said to do a search...It's no secret (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif) I have no plans to ever rebuild my motor when it scatters. Cheap, used, running SIXES are everywhere. ( For the price of a rebuilt stock 2.0 FOUR...Kit ) Just stating my perception of the facts. You will have to decide for yourself. KT |
