CIS 3.0L install tips and tricks wanted Options

[Nana's_914]

I am very close to starting on my 6 conversion. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/drooley.gif)

I have a decent inventory of parts now. Many of the parts are from my '77/'78 911SC hybrid donor car. I've seen that many folks ditch the CIS for carbs, but I would like to keep the CIS if I can.

I've heard about CIS interference issues requiring latch relocation and using banjo fuel lines to clear the trunk side of the engine bay. Are there any adjustments to mount locations needed to make the motor fit without cutting the car? What other surprises may I be in for?

Some of the parts I am using are RJ bulkhead mount, a WEVO 915, DW oil tank, and MSDS headers. Parts I still need are engine tins, oil lines(hoping to mod the 911 lines), and chassis reinforcement. Parts recommendations welcome.

Thanks

You can flip the whole CIS system and have the airbox on the firewall side, I have seen it done, but you need to modify the engine shroud.

Also you will need a 6pin CDI or an MSD setup.

I haven't tried it yet, but I would think that you could rotate the fuel distributor to clear the fuel inlet lines from the rear firewall. Since it is constant injection, the position of the feeds shouldn't be important as to cylinder number.

Just a thought.
