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 reasons i'm opting for honda power:
1. reliability. 2. i have a line on COMPLETE motors and tuning resources at a very reasonable price. 3. a multitude of aftermarket parts to choose from at a good price also. 4. more power than my type 4 at a lower cost(for the engine). 5. i like the variable valve timing thing, hype or no hype. 6. i miss my rx-7, and i have the need for a motor that i can rev the shit out of without breaking(at least not breaking right away). whether or not these are good reasons is a matter of personal opinion. i don't really plan on maxing this motor out. a few simple hardware/software mods is all i'm looking for at first. i'm just finally figuring out that i'm never gonna get the power i want out of my type 4 without breaking my bank. the honda may break me at first, but in the long run i think i'll enjoy it more.
