I am considering the purchase of a 911 s engine on this site to swap for my 1.7. However, I would like to get an idea of the work involved to make this happen. Thank you in advance for your help.
Cheers, John |

Go for it, but be realistic on your budget. Ben (mb911) has lot’s of great parts for the conversion, and AA has a nice booklet outlining the conversion. It also has wiring and oil tank fitting information. PMB can help with suspension, axle, and brake conversions, but that can be done later.
I have an original factory -6, and a ‘73 914 that I converted with a 2.7 911S Engine. They’re very different cars, but both are tremendous fun. The satisfaction of completing the conversion is priceless as well! |
