Got a great widebody 1971 that had a 1.7 in it. Car has a 916 look.
Anyway bought the 3.6 subaru motor w/ conversion package....all but the cradle. Will buy one or make one. Would love to find some fellow 914ers for questions as we proceed. Do have the wiring harness....also body stiffening kit. Working with a mechanic that has completed several other conversions on other cars but not a 914. thanks rob |

OutFront may not make a DBW harness. I'd talked to them at one point and he said there were issues with it. THAT being said, there are a lot of people out there that'll make up a harness for you. Go with a Stinger ECU or one of the many megasquirt options. Easy as pie.
I'm all for the 3.6 in a 914. That'd be a great combo. Good luck! Keep us in the loop. There are a number of us that are doing Subie conversions, so there's quite a bit of support if you need it. |

QUOTE(76-914 @ Sep 2 2014, 11:14 AM) ?????????????? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif) Can't be that simple, Doug. IIRC, you enrolled the services of the good Dr Fart to come by and wire yours up. Anyone who could withstand that onslaught is desperate, indeed! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif) Dr. Fart: (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif) I had the engine wiring 100% done in a few hours. He had to come in for the cluster-f$%k that I had with the REST of the car! |
