My brother purchased another 914 project. It currently has a mazda non turbo rotary conversion. It is currently not running, but apparently it ran in SCCA. It also has a radiator kit plumbed to the front. I have been reviewing his options:
Option 1: Spend money on the rotary to determine the health of the engine. Decide the cost to repair the rotary and figure out the wiring. Option 2 :He still has a type iv 71mmx 101mm long block. Determine cost of repair or rebuild, figure out what's missing, and get it back on the street. Option 3: convert to 4 cylinder Subaru wrx engine. determine the cost Option 4: convert to 6 cylinder Subaru ez30d engine. determine the cost. Looking for input from forum members who have any one of these options 1-4, with pros' and con's. Also for option 3-4 what real world cost are? what should be considered? Ball park on how many hours these conversions typically take? |
