anybody heard of a V-TEC conversion for the 914. KEP could probably come up with an adapter if he doesn't have one already. but, will a front drive motor work with a rear drive tranny? does the crankshaft spin in the same direction? anyone hear of any other front drive engine conversions? my 914 deserves more power than i can afford to get out of my type 4 motor. for the cost of nickies and upright cooling and head work, etc. i could have a turbo vtec setup.

QUOTE VR6 = $$$ , you can pick them up in good shape and running from $500 (what I paid) to $1000 all day longQUOTE did you have any ideas on mounting the mr2 motor? I'm not trying to be an ass, but if you have to ask questions like that, then a swap like this is not for you, there are no part numbers to go by...test fitting and fabrication is going to be required....do some research and find pictures of other swaps, this will give you a general idea of how to do it...... the adapter plate and flywheel is going to cost $500 no matter what engine swap you decide on.....unless you very creative and have access to the machining to do so and even then, it's still going to cost some money as long as you do everything correct the first time. |
