Hey guys i am going to try and remove the engine from my 914 today any advice? I am kinda scared to be honest. Is there any advice u guys can offer? I dont have a lift i am going to use a 3 ton floor jack and jackstands along with a furniture dolly. I think i am going to have trouble removing the cv joint.

There's a do it yourself article on the bird site that covers engine removal. Engine Removal
It's best to have someone help observe when lowering the engine/trans to make sure everything is disconnected and does not hang up. It's not a hard job. Good luck |

We don't need no stinking Bird site! Top of the page, click on 914 Info. Then, look for the technical article drop down. Then, click on engine removal by Mark DeBernardi. Done...
