I am sure ths has been discussed before but I couldn't find anything using the search. So, has there been a comparison done between a 911 six and big four, like Jake Raby's engines? Looking at:
1. Overall cost of engine (plus consideration of the cost of the conversion to a six from a four) 2. power hp/tq 3. engine life 4. other issues? |

I'm with Anthony, get a mild 130-170HP type IV for the 914 and get a 911 or 930 for my 6-cyl fix. For the price of a really nice /6 conversion you could get an old SC or something that just needs some TLC. I love these engine discussions, always a fun topic.
