1974 L13M LS1 v8 conversion outlaw originally built by mittlemotor.

I bought the car from a gentleman about 2 years ago in San Diego.

Blew the motor in July 2016 then broke my foot 2 weeks later delaying the rebuild.

Took forever for the rebuild then the car went into the audio shop which took just as long.

What has been done since I've acquired the 914.?

Rebuilt stock 5.7L LS1
Custom stage 4 semi organic clutch from KEP
New speed hut gauges,(gps speedo, tach, and quad )
New toyo RA1 tires 205/50/15f , 225/50/15r
Removed appearance package center console
Custom built new center console
New custom fitted re carpet with modern Porsche carpet
Custom fiberglass box with 10" JL AUDIO sub in passenger floor
Focal ES KX2 6.5 separate speakers
RF 1000w 5ch digital amp
Corner balanced 50/50 to the pound with me in it..

Cons:
The tranny has a whine but it still shifts smooth and it’s fast.
Haven’t MADE the time to get it looked at

The rear quarter panel is chipping because of a bad fender pull/roll..

Here is the craigslist ad.

Great conversion. Would be pretty "easy" to swap in a boxster trans when the 901 dies.

Good luck with sale!

I’ll be at donuts and derelicts this morning in Huntington Beach and coffee and cars at pelican next weekend if anyone is interested in seeing the 914.

Please let us know what you car sells for as people think that v8 cars do not bring in the big money.

Thanks,

Congrats to the new owner!

Please let us know what this sold for. Very nice v8 and it would help to know if this went for the big $ so we have an idea what this type of 914 can go for.

$30,000 asking price. What was the sold number

New owner is one of my best friends who is a long time 914 enthusiast like me. I’ve known him for over 40 years. He has a 914 V8 but it remains unfinished...been that way for over 20 years. Those who went to our Temecula fun day last year saw his car there. It was parked next to Eddy’s. So I passed on this car for several reasons but mostly because I felt he deserved it. I know the history on this build and it’s done right. The few things it needs are of no concern.

Plus my bud is a cancer survivor so I couldn’t be happier he got it. He’s a good guy.
His name is Jerry and some of you SoCal guys have seen him with me. He drove my black 914 to Cars and Coffee last week.

Seller (Al) was a pleasure to deal with.
