Doing a search on past threads, I found a few that reference having a 2.7 with CIS installed in a 914, with some modifications, however, I can't seem to find one referencing an installation of a 3.0 SC engine w/ CIS installed.
Anyone ever done this? |

2.2's a couple of issues back in Excellence a Northern Cal Porsche dealer had 3 Silver 1971 2.2's the T, E & S. The writer gave an excellent assessment of all three offerings and came back with his pick being the E, 155 HP great mid range tourque and an absolute ball to drive. I would think the E would be the pick of the 2.2's because you don't have to get the RPM's above 5000 to get the power band to perform. I actually have a 1970 2.2 E case that I am thinking about rebuilding for my next 914 project but am slightly hesitant about the magnesium case, but Capt. all head studs are still intact.
In defense of the 3.0, I have an 1980 911SC Weissach, I love the engine great midrange tourque, if you can make it work this would be great, if you can rebuild one and add the ARP Head studs all the better, I like the fact that the 3.0 has the Aluminum case.
