WTB 914 V8 Project car So Cal, WTB 914 V8 Project car So Cal Options

Looking for a partner in So Cal to develop a proper modern 914 V8 with an LS motor and Boxster S tranny. With the recent appreciation of 914's a well thought and built 914 V8's or 914-6 conversions are bringing significant money on Auction sites.

Of course from reliability and driveability the 901 has been the weak link from the conversion but upgrading to a Boxster tranny with the Renegade Hybrid kit will transform this 914 to pure street bliss https://www.renegadehybrids.com/transaxles.html

The Modern LS motor boxster combination completely transforms the go cart 914. It, more importantly, does not have the complexity of other swaps as the parts to customize the LS are readily available and Renegade has developed the complete kit for the 6 speed boxster tranny.

I also have a high-performance 3-liter SC motor and a 915 transmission that would require rebuilding as another option to build a 914 6 conversion but the total cost would likely be significantly more than a used LS boxster S.

Looking for a modest LS build to be reliable for everyday street driving and an occasional Autox and open track day. Attached is a car currently on Ebay the dark blue wide body that closes on Wednesday for an example of a 914 V8 or 914 6 looking to build.
