I'm kicking around the idea of upgrading my 914-6 that currently has a stock 2.0 engine in it. It a 914 conversion that has an original six in it with Webers. I like the idea of more hp & the motronic fuel injection. What am I getting myself into if I take on this project over the winter? What parts will I need to buy or replace. Tranny is a 901 with LSD.
- Engine with wiring harness - DME - Flywheel/clutch? - Engine mount? - ??? Anyone document their 3.2 install |

Anyone document their 3.2 install Proper gauges for the 3.2, PMS harness conversion wiring ($200) Engine mount will fit depending on brand Engine sheet metal needs minor mods Possible different heat exchangers/headers Throttle cable Possible different axles and CV's O2 sensor, sensor on trans from engine, ect. Probably extra oil cooling. Possibly regearing trans Possibly bigger brakes. Pretty easy switch since you already have a 6. |
