It is that time of the year to get prepared for winter projects.

Cool!!! Can't wait to see it come to life. It will be very interesting to see what happens cuz you are already one fast som bitch. Next generation shitbox will probably be scary.

Great deal in a tough economy!


if you decide to "part out", I want first dibbs on the airbox!

Posted by: Britain Smith Aug 25 2010, 03:52 PM

Oh, I also have the 914/6 Engine Mount (Rich Johnson Mount I believe) that I can cut out of the car for you. Comes with WEVO Semi-Solid Mounts.

sounds like Subi 2.5L is going to be coming?

Posted by: sean_v8_914 Aug 26 2010, 10:08 AM

shhh!

Posted by: ArtechnikA Aug 26 2010, 10:48 AM

Remind me what kind of oil pump is in that?

Don't want the clutch, any of the oiling bits, or any of the exhaust.
All that could be more valuable as a set to someone looking at a conversion than part of the package...

Got a price for just the engine ?

Thanks.

Posted by: Britain Smith Aug 30 2010, 09:39 PM

Ok, I have located my new motor. I am serious about selling, price reduced. If you are serious, make me an offer.

-Britain

Posted by: Britain Smith Aug 31 2010, 11:52 AM

This would make a great street/weekend track engine.

Great street engine with reduced timing and premium pump gas.

If you are thinking about going down the path towards a 914/6 conversion, it doesn't get any easier than this. I have everything to need for the conversion...including a great engine.

Accepting offers.

Those chassis dyno numbers at the wheels or 'corrected' crank estimates. I'd probably contemplate a yearlong grudge by the wife and selling my motorcycle and 4cyl if I was on the west coast.

Posted by: Britain Smith Sep 13 2010, 08:34 PM

Those are dyno numbers at the wheels. Equals to about 235hp at the crank, estimated.

Have you already sold off your 914/6 oil-tank/console/filler?
If you haven't PM me your price.

Posted by: Britain Smith Sep 27 2010, 12:46 PM

Not yet, none of that will go until the engine is sold.

Buy the engine and I will make you a good deal on the conversion stuff.

Posted by: JmuRiz Sep 27 2010, 01:26 PM

Sorry, already have a motor, I'll keep an eye on this f/s thread though.

Thanks Dan!

Special 914World member only deal...take $250 off the asking price of $9500 (engine only). Not looking for a motor, refer this motor to someone for $9500 and I will send you $250.

I currently have 3 interested parties, if you have been watching this thread and are interested, now is the time to step to the plate. I can do a package deal for everything.

Posted by: Britain Smith Oct 7 2010, 12:14 PM

Ha, I have been thinking about RV's lately, but no plans to get one. As soon as someone purchases this engine, the money will go right back into the car for the new engine.

-Britain

Posted by: Britain Smith Oct 9 2010, 10:08 PM

Does anyone know anyone working on or thinking about a 914/6 conversion? If so, let me know. I am willing to make a killer deal on the whole package, I even have a 914/6 intermediate plate for the transmission with the bell linkage and throttle cable. They only parts that I don't have are an engine mount (well, I have one side of a Rich Johnson mount, the other is welded to the car) and engine tin.

Posted by: Britain Smith Oct 12 2010, 03:12 PM

I am a very motivated seller, give me a ring, lets make a deal.

-Britain

Posted by: Britain Smith Oct 13 2010, 03:40 PM

$500 off for 914World Members.

If you are looking for an engine that is a known quantity (i.e. running, very reliable, pulls strong, etc.) then let me know and we can work a deal. I have an entire YouTube channel full of video's of this engine in action. Here is a really good video track side from a recent event. http://www.youtube.com/user/69turbo912?feature=mhsn#p/a/u/0/1AH9-yrEslE

Posted by: Britain Smith Oct 18 2010, 12:34 PM

Bump for price reduction.

I will sell all the 914/6 conversion parts with the engine for $10.5 plus shipping. This is a heck of a deal for those looking to do a conversion.

Engine has been sold pending payment.

Posted by: JmuRiz Oct 19 2010, 02:47 PM

Awesome, hopefully the payment comes though and all ends up well. Let me know what conversion parts are leftover (if any)

Posted by: carr914 Oct 19 2010, 05:40 PM

About time , then again you were wading through the CSOB Pond.

Good Luck with the project

Posted by: ArtechnikA Oct 19 2010, 06:27 PM

A race-gas engine is a hard sell.
My rough estimate was $2500 to make it run happily on pump gas.
Still a great deal with all the conversion parts - if you need all the conversion parts...

Posted by: Britain Smith Oct 19 2010, 10:08 PM

Nah, this engine can easily run on pump gas with 27degrees of timing. The actual compression ratio is much less than 10.4:1, more like 9.6:1.

As for the conversion parts, they will be sold as soon as the engine is out of the car.
