Great article on a mid-engine VTEC Swap, but not in a 914!

I wish all these swaps were fully documented like assembly blueprints, exploded views, prints with the fab'd parts with dimensions, parts lists of fab parts, parts lists of purchased parts ...

OK we will get there someday ...

Have you read some of the build threads on here? Really easy to go through and duplicate a lot of the work shown here...

And please let's have a reality check. Let's look at the results. This whole thread is about honda boys. Which are very far from performance numbers around here. Yes, I love Hondas. I have been a honda fan since the elsinore days of mortorcycles.

let's get real. I respect the idea. but Audi is a better idea. There are just so many powerplants that make more sense in a 914.

Sure it can be done.

Why not a 1000hp ecotech???
