Hi,
I have two donor 914's, I can get a 32 valve 928 motor for alot less than a 6 cylinder. When I am done I can still race in the PCA club. So, I have seen a few (cant remember alot of detail, but this has been done before) What do you guys think... from what I read about 928's, I can get to 400 hp fairly quickly with a supercharger...

Mueller is correct about watching the rules carefully if you plan on any track events. Most of the groups have "approved" engine swaps, which for the 914 generally means the air-cooled 911 engines. For the early 911's, it means the later 911 air-cooled engines. The rules are generally not written to allow for true hybrids like 928 engines in 914's or 944's, or Boxster/996 engines in air-cooled cars.
From what I recall, Roland Kunz in Germany posted the info and pics about the two "high-end" ($50K) transplant cars last year. The posts should still be on the Pelican BBS if you feel like searching there. |
