So I have had years of fun working on my 4 cyl however a few weeks ago I saw an ad in the classifieds section for a 1970 911e 2.2l engine w/zenith carbs for sale. I decided to buy it. I never had any plans for converting to a 6 cyl until now.
Here are a few basic 6 cyl conversion questions- 1. What is the best motor mount to use? 2. What size headers should I buy (1.5")? 3. What oil tank should I buy (I don't care about originality, just looking for best combination of function to cost)? 4. Are stock 1970 911e pressure plates usable on 914 side shift transmissions (the pressure plate looks flat- it doesn't look like a 914 pressure plate)? |

The 2.0 aluminum pressure plate is the "S" plate. Both the flywheel and the PP were plated with copper. Running the 2.0 flywheel on a 2.4/2.7 is fine, and works well, but you have to replace the TDC and the 30/35 degree marks because the crankshaft bolts are clocked differently. Be sure to use the correct flywheel bolts, too.
