Hey all. Who wants to donate their two cents worth on this... I am converting to six cyinder, and I have two engines.... a 2.2T with webers and a 2.7S with CIS.
I thought the CIS would be nice for everyday driving, and would be less troublesome overall, especially if the car sits for a long period of time. However, I heard there are some clearance issues on the rear firewall. Has anyone overcome this? Or would it be better to use the carb setup on the 2.7 and change the cams???? Either way I have pieces left over... and pieces to buy. Thanks. -Kris |

Well, because of the wieght difference in the cars, it depends. A 125hp 2.2T motor will keep up with most 911SC's on the road. A 180hp 2.7 will probably beat most stock 3.2 Carerra's.
Do the math: 180hp 2300lb 914-6 180hp 2800lb 911SC 214hp 3100lb Carerra 204hp 3000lb Carerra I am just guessing on my numbers, they are probably off a little, but you get the idea. |
