914World.com _ FS/WTB: 914 Parts _ FS 914-6 Engine Complete Restoration
Posted by: PaulFV8 Feb 20 2024, 08:36 AM
For Sale - Original 914-6 engine complete overhaul/restoration by John Chambers Motorsports (Valley Center CA) using the original case, crank, rods and heads. Now a 2.2 with new pistons/cylinders from J&E. Restoration included, polished crank, reprofiled cams, upgraded chain tensioner, new valve guides, restored alternator and all Zinc plated parts restored. Perfect engine for a 914-6 tribute which was my original plan, now I have decided to go a different route with a 2.7. Over $30k in invoices, asking $27k crated and shipped to you CONUS or $26k if you pick it up in Valley Center (John is closing his shop soon so the local pickup option is a limited offer)
I will post photos later today
thanks for looking
Paul

I know the owner of the numbers matching car *2624, alas it used to be mine. The car has a 66 aluminum case 2.5 in it currently.

I’m surprised the owner of the original matching car isn’t buying it for the future.

It sounds like he already has a great engine in the car. He might not feel it’s worth $26k ( good price btw) to have a pretty paperweight in his garage. It would make a great table base with a glass top but …

I've let him know about it.
But yes the 2.5 shortstroke on 66 aluminum case with weber 40IDS carbs that is in it is quite good:)
