Hello!
Is a 911 engine 2.4 T a good engine to use in a 914 ? What do I have to change to use it ? The engine is complete from the 911 with all the parts. My car is a -72 1.7. Greetings from Sweden on the lefthanders day. Niklas |

My car is a -72 1.7. In stock form, probably not. For the possibly less money that you will spend sourcing the parts to install the 6 engine, you could build a 2056 T4 out of your existing 1.7, and that will rival the power you will get from the heavier 6. The 2.4 T only produced 130hp stock new. If it needs to be rebuilt, you are going to spend a lot of money building it. BUT, if you rebuilt the engine to E specs you will have a 165HP motor. And if you built it to S spec (and why not, if you are building it anyway) you will have a 190 hp plant. And that will be worth doing. Of course, building it to E or S spec will cost a lot, unless you can find the parts cheaper then we can here in the States. This lefty says HI on left-handers day! Zach |
