914-6 conversion question, what else do I need? Options

[Mr_Chu]

Ok, so I have a 914 and also a 911SC. I am going to throw in the 3.0-liter motor into my 914.

I have to change the oil tank, I have to do the ring and piston thing, motor mounts, heat exchangers and new oil lines and stuff. What else do I need to do?

I know I have to upgrade suspension and braking, but what else do I need in order to swap motors and tranmission? Do I need to modify anything else? I pretty much have all the pieces to do the conversion, the problem I'm having is actually starting!

Any comments, suggestions, or missing parts I might need to do the full swap?

This conversion is starting to be a nightmare and its also costing me a pretty penny! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif) Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Also, thanks for the guys that gave me some pointers earlier. That really helped me out!

Or keep an eye on ebay....

as to adapters.....

1) 915 trans with 3.0, no adapter needed...but needs ring gear flipped

2) 901 trans, with 3.0 needs adapter FLYWHEEL

3) If converting a 914/4 to a six, ya need a motor mount....if it's an original six, NO motor mount is neeed, use the one that's in there....

4) Oil tank specific to the 914/6 will fit in the wheel well.

5) Oil lines SPECIFIC to the 914/6 can be bought but making them with Metric to AN adpaters, s/s aircraft line and AN fittings is cheaper....

6) Any time you think it's over you need more stuff....

7) 914/6 heat exchangers really ARE that expensive.....either buy headers and wear a coat or buy them...they are only getting more expensive....

8) You will more than likely need an external oil cooler.....they ain't cheap either...buy new, you never should use a used cooler.....
