I have a solid 1974 914 tub and a very rusty 1970 911t. I don't want to repair the 911 and would like to do a /6 conversion on the 1974 tub. obviously, I need the engine out of the 911, but what else should I salvage for conversion? the 911 runs sort of, it has a sporto in it now, do I need to block off converter pump on engine ( will be using sideshift 901), do any of the oil lines/filter console etc transfer? thanks.

Given what long hood 911's are fetching today would it be better to sell it and use the money for the conversion parts? Seems like you could finance a better motor and a lot of the conversion parts with what a "restore-able" (as Beverly Hills Car Club would call it) 911. Like this fine example! https://www.beverlyhillscarclub.com/1973.5-...arga-c-9892.htm

TOTALLY agree!!!!!!!!!
someone will want to restore that 911 and save it, let them and do not part it. A sportomatic 1970 just sold for over 64,000 and was not that nice Given what long hood 911's are fetching today would it be better to sell it and use the money for the conversion parts?
