Long time lurker here, 1st time poster....

I have a unique situation, a large goal and short time to complete said goal.

I have researched and spent hours reading several of y'all's threads on converting your teeners to a suby powertrain.

I have roughly a month to complete a conversion, plus cage and full suspension.

I found cold water, and thought my issues were solved, but it seems he isn't active at the moment. Soooo here it is..... does any of y'all have any conversion parts that would be for sale to help speed up my process? Specifically a cradle, 5 lug conversion stuff, cable shift, axles, and tranny mounts.

I have an ej25, and a 5mt 2wd conversion tranny, and radiator and fans,this 914 is being built to race in the upcoming 24hr chump race at vir, then hopefully some AER and NASA and possibly SCCA.

This chassis is a 73, and I do believe one of the original owners had a thread on all the work he had done to it, but at the end he had to slap it together and sell due to relocating out of country?
I will try to locate that thread and add it here to refresh everyones memory of the car.

Any help, parts or suggestions will be welcomed, but please refrain from the brow bashing of not keeping the car original, because the goal of this build and car is to have fun with it and expand the cars role in the future, maybe a full 6gt conversion, who knows, but this is the first step!

Thanks in advance


Update: here is the chassis that we ended up picking up for this build.
