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.

The D- and I believe B-series motors mount thus:
There is a left-side mount that goes in the middle of the timing belt. (Yeah, you have to remove one mount to replace the t-belt. And you gotta do that every 60K miles.) There is a right-side mount on the end of the transmission. There is a front mount from the transmission onto the forward crossmember. There is a rear mount from the transmission onto the rear crossmember. I just did a transmission swap on the CRX last Sunday, so this is fresh in my mind.... --DD |
