Hello to all. I purchased a 75 Bumble Bee and want to convert it to a six. I spoke with Motor Miester on their 2.0 six's and wanted to know if anyone has dealt with them or if you have any other recomendations. I am new to the 914 community, but I do know I want to make this one a six ,she's very solid and looks great too.
(Can you tell I'm a proud papa). |

Welcome and Whoaa, a 75 Bumble Bee? Hmmm, since they only made them in 74 this is interesting. Maybe a copy or ?
Motor Miester doesn't have the best rep in the Porsche world and the conversion are done all the time by someon this board. The correct parts alone cost $4500, oil tank, lines, motormount, flywheel, etc. So when you go cheap thats what you get is cheap. Installing a 2.0l six is a waste of time in IMHO, atleast a 3.0L or a 3.2 is the way to go. Find one )3.0l or 3.2) out of a wrecked car with low miles (100k) and use that for a six conversion. These motors are going for $3000 to 5000 and shouldn't need any rebuilding until 200k. If you just want the orginal 110 hp you can get that from a 2.0L four and save alot of money. Geoff |
