I have the chance to buy a 2,2T motor.
Is this a good motor for a 914 6 conversion? Its not cheap so I want to be sure that its not wasted money. There is also a 2,4 available and its a bit cheaper. Advice required (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i1300.photobucket.com-17452-1472590389.1.jpg) |

Not much info to go on here,what isn't cheap? good running or needing work?.
If the engine is a good runner you still should check the engine over very carefully. Go to Pelican Parts tech article on the six conversion,read up on the cost of conversion parts and because this article is way out of date basically double the price of those parts.Like me you live a long way from the best source of parts so factor in high shipping cost especially the larger heavy items. My car was 80% converted but the cost to get it to 100% has been expensive. I think the early engines like this one are the easiest and cheapest to do a conversion with. |
