i have been searching all night, and can't seem to come up with how much different the car will handle with the added weight etc etc...Thinking of doing a v8 conversion but if the handling of the car diminishes greatly, i won't really want to do it. Anyone want to share some info?
I know how well my 914-4 handles, but what will change with the v8? |

Thanks for all the input everybody...Im really questioning doing the v8 conversion, i love the way the car is now, just want more power. It seems like building up a 4 cylinder motor to the same specs as a comparable subaru motor conversion is about the same in price. I would really like to have fuel injection, maybe ill look for a subaru motor instead of snatching up my buddy's 302. Thanks everyone, i really appreciate it!!!!!
