914World.com _ 914World Garage _ Hey Brad, Question for you

Posted by: skline Oct 21 2004, 09:43 AM

Have you done a Boxster engine and trans or even just a Boxster engine conversion into a 914? I was just curious if you could do something like that?

I have one in progress right now. *might* be running by Jan/Feb. The owner doesnt have much time for me to work on it right now (it is at his house). We are building a mockup rear clip because the inner ears for the control arms need to be cut off and moved outwards. We didnt want to do this on his freshly painted flared tub until I practiced on a doaner clip.

OH. The plan is to use the Boxster rear suspension (we already have it) and the measurements/drawings have been done.

The red car with the Boxster g-box mentioned above has a 3.2 aircooled engine, not a 3.2 watercooled/Boxster S engine

Interesting, I would like to see pictures of that one if possible. Maybe you could even bring it down to the WCC05? More history in the making.
