Is there an adapter to go from a Ford 351C to a Porsche transmission?? I have searched around some and can't seem to find one. All are for a Chevy so far.

That might be because the Ford block MAY be too long to fit. Call Kennedy and they will tell you the whole scoop.

will people Please stop that non-sense that the Ford block is too long !!!!! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif) Looking at the KEP site, they don't list the Cleveland block, but I'd still call them and ask. I think a Windsor block would be better since it's lighter (I do like the 351C motors, had a Mach 1 with one in it years ago, the one car I kick myself for selling) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/hijacked.gif) Brian, a place called Pryo Minerals in Oakland has pretty much everything needed for castings.....I'll be going up there this week to start buying stuff |

I sent an Email to Kennedy asking for info on 351C to Porsche. My hope is, down the road I could pick up a Pantera in need of an engine. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/dry.gif) |

There are wyas to get the trans bolted to the motor, but it will not fit into a 914 w/o cutting into the firewall for distributor clearance.
Good luck w/ it BJH |

Exellent idea!! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/boldblue.gif) There has got to be someone who has done this. Some old Mustang motorhead, that was won over to the superhandling midi-car, the beloved 914. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/screwy.gif) Trying to see if the Pantera zf Tranny could be squeezed in. That would be BAD.

yea...the factory (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif) the very popular do-it-yourself EDIS crankfire came from Ford production vehicles (see this site for some info...Megasquirt EFI site ) there are 2 ZF equipped 914's running around here in the SF Bay Area.... like Aaron mentioned, bring cash, lot's of it for a ZF... |

A ZF might actually be cheaper in the long run. Current tally on my 930:
$3k trans $2k machining to flip the ring $2.2k shipping, sliders, new synchros, gaskets, etc It adds up fast. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/sad.gif) In the end you'll have a better trans with the 930 though, higher tourque capability etc. A ZF is the way to go if you plan on keeping it under 450hp though. Also consider the Mendeola. |
