I'm doing a V6 Buick conversion with adapters, etc. from Kennedy Engineered Products. I also bought an IMI High Torque starter from them. The only thing is, it won't clear the trunk floor so I can put it in. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/confused24.gif) The starter is IMI's #101, which is what Kennedy sent me knowing, I believe, that it was going into a 914. Anyone else run into this problem? Or, what starter did you end up using for your V6 or V8 conversion.

I just got my 101 starter from KEP today, and was worrying that I would have to move coolant pipes on my 915/tdi/Vanagon conversion due to just this reason. Now you've shown me the solution.  :trophy:
Thanks guys! You Rock!  :rockin:

Otmar,

Yes, ain't this board great! It's saved me a lot of time and money on both my 914's. Guess I better contribute some dough to show my appreciation but please, Dear Lord, tell me there is another way besides Pay Pal! I don't do Pay Pal anymore, and won't again.

Show us some pics of your Vanagon conversion, I'm especially interested becauses that was one of the first conversions I thought of doing. I've still got another conversion to do on my 76 914.

Don
