Who has put a Chevrolet LS1 engine into a 914. I am having trouble finding a thread.
Please can someone help me find what I am looking for? Thank you. Jim jdorociak@gmail.com |

I put an LS1 in my car this winter. I had a 350 SBC and wanted a lighter engine with modern EFI and engine management.. The only thing usable of the SBC swap parts was the motor mount bar and trans set back mounts. I used Meziere electric water pump. For the water inlet and outlet on the block I removed the pump impeller and cut the nose off the pump to shorten it enough to get the engine to fit. Because the water goes into and out through the pump there are passages that have to be modified when the impeller is removed.
It is not anywhere as easy or inexpensive as an SBC swap but I think it is worth the effort. There are 2 or 3 others on here that have done this swap and it seems they all have done things a little different. Jerry |
