I finally crossed the thousand-dollar mark.
My $168 headers are back from the blaster and I've modified them for an O2 sensor. POR-20 is on the way to coat them: Attached image(s) |

Hah ... I bought one dem der kits ... makes great wall art (my HPV-3B won't communicate with my 'puter). I do like the moto on the pulley ... had to install mirrors to see it while I am driving. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif) I'm going to use an EDIS6 and it will talk to the MSII. Does the MSII use a 60 -2 tooth wheel? I thought they used the 36 - 1 setup. |

Muffler today ... What's the OE on the fan housing or diameter? Shroud tomorrow .... Images ....... It's a Bischoff. I think that muffler will work. Where's that thread where AAron converted one of those to twin center outlet? I think I'll do that. The fan housing I have has the same part number as Wills' 3.2, but the alternator flange is the shallow one, like for an externally regulated alternator. Sorry to hijack, but where did you find a longblock for that kind of money? Did I miss this somewhere? |

I finally crossed the thousand-dollar mark. My $168 headers are back from the blaster and I've modified them for an O2 sensor. POR-20 is on the way to coat them: Did you add a bung in both headers? If so, would like to know why? No, I welded up an unused small bung in the other one. |

See, they both had small bungs for unknown reasons:

Thanks Joe! I have the same headers and this thread is exactly what I'm attempting.

This is the deal I struck with Andy in exchange for the return of his /6 cooler.
A fresh cooler from Pacific Oil Cooler Service. It almost seems a shame to mod it for the 914. Attached image(s) |

Nice Thread... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/popcorn[1].gif)
We did the first conversion on my 914 with a 2.7 back in 2000 for around $4k. They key was we found a running 2.7cis with 914-6 tin for $1500. I ran the motor for 8 years no problems, except it leaked a lot... it would have worked out a little better if we resealed the top end. Also didn't run an oil cooler on it. It didn't need it unless it got real hot outside, but it would have needed it if it were tracked. |
