I have been gifted with a 914. Don't know the year or exact condition yet but Iknow it will need a bit of work. I'll be doing everything myself and will try and post pictures along the way.

I'm wondering about engine choices. I have a feeling that the car will need engine work. Either a rebuild of the existing or a replacment.

I'm looking for anyone who has put the ecotech in a 914. I've read alot about them in buses amd rails but I can't seem to find anyone who put one in a 914. Does it fit? (I'd think so if you can squeeze a 350 in there, with cutting). How about performance? 170 HP should make this little car a fun ride.

What about rebuilding the existing 4 (I can't even hope it is an origional 6cyl). What kind of power can I get and how much will it cost? I know "speed" costs money, How fast you want to go? But what have you guys paid and what have you gotten out of them?

Is there a better transplant for cheap than the ecotech?
