My buddy is considering buying a half finished 914 project car that will need a few things including an oil cooler for the 3.2 six. What do shops usually charge for parts and labor generally for this, ballpark? Thanks.

You can do it for $500 - $3,000. To do it right, plan on a minimum of $1,400 for parts and I’m guessing 8+ hours for labor.

Ben makes good bits for the conversion, worth sending him a PM to get connected. @mb911 There is a lot more to it than the oil cooler BTW, does your friend have a build plan in place? |

Good point. I'll shoot Ben a message and get his input.
