Mostly stock components.VVT. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)
An exercise in ic design,you know,like roll your own. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
An aircooled 12 cylinder to fit inside the 914 envelope,a proposal that the 917 engine cannot meet.
Note the raised cam towers ala Julius Mackerle's Tatra.A vvt setup not available to the designers in '58-69.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Julius_Mackerle
Lightening up on the reciprocating parts and some elements from this decade makes for a viable -12.
A liquid cooled set of heads makes a 4valve arrangement possible,reducing mass of the valves for a given area.
A convenient feature is the proximity of the exhaust ports for a turboed variant,upping the ante for ultimate power levels of a Nurburgring endurance trackster.
The above pix is a simple Corvair version limited by all of the original factors of that design.


This is a 290 Cummins roller cam follower,cast.

Making it all fit,in a nice 904 house,the LeMans windscreen a great fit on the 914.
The windscreen is indeed a 904,and therefore a little pricy,making this six conversion no cheap thrill.
Very light,strong,powerful,quick and fast,all the wishes granted for this 914.
A revised double wishbone front suspension,the rear getting a pair too,(mebee a fabbed upright in light wrought alloy).
The latemodel bumpers have been radically modded to meld with the lengthened nose and tail's bottom,a major change.
A normal door,widened,with windup intact,the frame in cfrp,the glass waterjetted to fit.
Inside,the standard interior will do,the seats customised to shave 60mm off the bottom,the same as the roof's chop.
This is the factory wheelbase,the track widened to carry the larger modern rubber,I chose the ATS 5-Phons of the 928.
The nose and frunklid have been heavily modded to meet the windscreen's valance in a smooth radius,following the cowl.
The nose of the lid is radiused to match the new bumper's recurve.
A good deal of work,not for the faint of heart,a modern suspension with the factory parts reworked.
Two months later,I did some drawing,mapping out the front suspension,setting up the rear for a big change.
I haven't added the massive sidescoop,yet,letting the shape grow on me a little while.
Like,not looking at it,then,looking at it,to see if I still like it.
I do!

Not too shabby....currently one on eBay, less than 10K miles for only $1600 or best offer...Would look great with some ITBs on it.

You play with Fusion360 yet?

[veekry9]

I've used many/most software,cad and or cam packages over the last four and a half decades.
Currently in love with Rhino,because of the versatile plug-ins available.
https://www.rhino3d.com/sales/north-america/
Every once in a while I'll look and test drive something new or upgraded older packages.
Some are downright funky and counter intuitive,requiring huge training budgets to use with any efficiency.
I think I posted about some of those crash programs the post processors puked out,costing large.

[veekry9]

Somewhere someone posted about Honda van engines and I thought the numbers of Chrysler
and now Fiat/Chrysler V6's were worth a gander.
Walking in the yard with a tape and a camera,taking pix of the new ones with the varicams.
The single exhaust ports most suitable for the turbo application,heh,heh. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif)
And like the price is right,dirt cheep for the bangs you could have.

While you're there,pick up a transaxle for it.
Many flavours.

150mm longer wheelbase,2600.
To accommodate the longer engine transaxle package.
The intercoolers are sidemounts,between the axles,mid.
Temperature gradient coating paint.

The 2016 Cayman is visible,wheelbase of 2474.
The front axles line up,the scale +/- 1.5mm,(1/16").
The rear valance of the Cayman is visible.
This pix is a 2D view,lining up the images in the same Z plane,appearing to have depth of field.
The venturi ceiling is at the height of the bumper top,roughly,the channels run alongside the tub,widened.
The front splitter is an option for the track,the main channel ports running inside the wheelwells.
The large scoops feed the intercoolers and lowpressure volume behind the targa,getting a good signal.
Turbulators trip the belly flow in the channels to enhance rotational velocity and pressure drop.
Looking through the car in ZD the original 914 chassis still there,massaged to meet the build sheet.
A stack of detail drawings inches thick,like for the steelmill rolling lines of twenty years ago.
Our departed pres called it "Imagineering", we then machined those ideas,enjoying the work.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imagineering
More to come.

Standard wheelbase.

[veekry9]

Had to do a Bahia L30E and blackout rocker.
The front and rear bumpers get the same treatment,a little differently,a kind of two tone muzzle look.Blackout on the inside.
The rear trunkline has been raised,to meet the 904's tapered targa,the result more trunk space,and or more under trunk room for the 'diffusers'.
Considerations not made in the 60's when the 914 idea germinated from the 904's success.
An inexpensive runabout,a modern take on a convertible,the grp roof panel stowed in the trunk,so mod.
Horseshoeing a large powerful engine into it,a reasonable quest,makes for different reinforcement requirements.
The compromise in 2016 can be the materials used,the preferred being the lightest and strongest,placed around the mandated chromolly cage.
The monocoque structures at both ends fasten to the cage,the loads transferred through multiple hardpoints.
The door intrusion structure is a loadbearing part of the cage,hydraulically secured from movement,the fitment close.
Something a little different.Ah,ATS-5-18 in billet,8"+10".

A FeO inflicted 914,dragged from a field,no engine,TX or interior.Sound familiar?
Why,section and splice-in an intact Fiero chassis center,becoming a composite of two unloved midengine vehicles,loved.
What you get is a complex of steel stampings proven to withstand an 80mph lateral rollover test,a premade 'tub'.
Further reinforcment with chromolly tubular members to carry the 914 chassis attaches makes for a very stiff unibody,corner to corner.
The stretched 914 doors attach in the normal way,hinges placed to meet the Fiero bulkhead,the side window rails modded to carrry the new glass.
Now,a smoothly integrated CRX roofline from the choppers saves a ton of work to the streamlined 911 like profile.
Paint it a color not on the 914 list to suit the narpanista origins,in spite of the Porsche engine of least cost,the 924's,in turbo form.

More mods,a slight change in the beltline to meet the rear's hump.
The same 914 WB,the power of choice is the TT 3.6,or perhaps the Subaru H6.
I still like the idea of a latemodel's front TX installed for a poorman's 959 drivetrain.
Some real outside the lines work to bring it to fruition,a diff mated to the rear(front) of a block,
driven by a gearbox ahead of the engine,mimicing the Lamborghini Countach of '69.
The whatif of the 14's targa replacement with a custom piece built around a 904's windscreen.
I superimposed the late Cayman and observed the possibility of the use of the wider,later glass.
A waterjetted example would fit right in and enhance the look of a custom 914,a huge fan installed at an angle.
I'll workup a Cayman or Boxster glass install to see how it would look,the widths matching the widened 14's chassis.
The 904's wraparound does look so right in it's place on the custom roofline,Unobtanium's and Jake's flat 12 endeavors 'stimulating'.

Looks ok,a color not often seen on 914s,a medium green light metallic,a kind of Zagato tint.
A small change in some curves,the composite roofline modified from the 904's windscreen rearward,the rollup door glass more 914.
Of the variations to the targa curve since the beginning,all attempting to mask the unusual design,none looked like this.
A retro roof for the 914,lower,narrower,slightly smoother in the air.With an 800$ Caddy V6 and a nice 6spd,goes like,a very quick and fast 914.
Some work on the suspension and braking must be done to handle the more than quadrupled power,
lateral links to control the trailing arms that are prone to getting all twisted around.
The Mahle look alikes in a larger diameter to carry the wide low profile modern rubber,the power demanding more grip.
A huge job applied to a derelict 914 near you,the condition irrelevant,the changes and hammering so large in scope.
