Maybe Marty can weigh in on this. The 3.0 liter twin turbo motor in my Macan GTS is so freaking amazing, I wonder if it would fit in a 914? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

I looked into this and went so far as separating the starter ring gear from a Macan flywheel. Talked with Kennedy about an adapter. The issue is you need to convert the engine to dry sump as the Macan sump is quite deep. I even talked with Marty about his set up.
As @SirAndy points out, it's doable, but I opted for something simpler... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif) If you decide to go this way, let me know. I have a ring gear I don't need. |
