930 motor into 914, How to? Options

[team ftb]

Here's the question. Has anybody done this and what does it involve? A buddy owes me huge and he has a complete turnkey 930 motor to settle the debt. I have a 914 complete w/flares, suspension and brakes to handle this beast. I just know it will be a pain and would like some input and guidance.

The car will not be a daily driver. Sunday fun and track duty only. So I can cut the trunk and lid anyway needed for access, headers, exhaust, etc.

Issues I'm thinking about:

Exhaust (probably cut off at headers and mounted backwards to its current configuration. The rest custom made.

Tranny: It should be able to be rebuilt (ottos) it to take the heat as long as I warm it up, do not abuse it, install pump and coolers etc.

Intercooler mount: How about proper airflow to it?

CV's and Axles: How much can they take?


Any insights, advice, wisdom, cajoling etc. is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Question regarding a trans if I may...POC club racers run the 901 gearbox built w/a better mainshaft behind 3.2's and 3.6 putting out just under 260-300hp. That is one option. The other is I can have the 930 3 speed machined and flip the R&P. Prey tell does anyone know who does this on the 930 box and how much it costs?

It's prolly worth it to search the archives here. I'm sure I saw a thread from Brad on the machining he does to use a 930 tranny in a 914.

The scanning worked just fine -- all the images are crisp, clear and over 6M each.

On the up side, I found two articles, one that includes an intercooler. I'll get this sorted soon.....
