I'm looking for information on dropping a 3.0 SC CIS-injected engine into a 914.
What's needed for the wiring? Other parts required? Impressions? What did you use for heat exchangers? Did you have to add an external oil cooler? Front mounted cooler or fan-cooled mounted elsewhere? Thanks. |

Have a 3.0 and was talked into Webbers and selling the CIS. Also have an 82 SC with the same motor with CIS. The performance of each is not night and day even in the lighter 914. The mileage difference is noticeable and had to install an exhaust fan in the 914 berth which runs 24X7 to keep gas fumes out of the house. Webbers are sexy and have a great induction noise, but if I had it to do over again, I would have kept th CIS.
Throttle linkage had to be modified, tach had to be changed from mechanical to electronic. Have the real deal 914-6 HEs and added a front oil cooler which does its job. You may also want to consider upgrading the brakes if you haven't already. |
