Well it has been interesting to say the least and also a great learning process, but
after many months and engineering this conversation project car; the engine was installed TODAY and is getting ready to FIRE UP soon !!! Check out my photos and comments or questions are welcome. For any of you that have been following my Progress Thread "Project 914-LT1 Canadian V8 conversion" you will know that I decided to take some risks and be a trail blazer ! If interested in more details or photos check out the original thread. I am running a late model Chevy 350 engine (with some modifications) and coupled to a 1997 Boxster five speed transmission. There have been many changes along the road but hopefully it will be road worthy in a few weeks (awaiting a special starter setup and a few additional parts). It should be intersting to drive with a very slick "Cable Shifter" from the Boxster along with a modified 914 Cable clutch set-up for the added feel and control rather than a hydraulic unit. Must call it a night but just wanted to share some or my new found excitement ! Photos attached and to follow. Allan Toronto, Canada Attached image(s) ![]() |
