Met a guy at Amelia Island Werks Reunion who said he once owned a 914 with a 3.2 six and it had a Boxster S transmission. He did not do the build himself, said he bought it that way. I'm going down the 915 path currently. Never heard of this combo but was wondering if anyone had? Pros/ cons.

Alan Clapp's 914
The Ultimate 914? 1987 Carrera engine mildly tweaked to about 230 hp; full welded roll cage; 996 TT brakes F & R; chassis reinforcements; 245x35x18" front tires on 9" rims; 285x30x18" rear tires on 10" rims; carbon fiber hoods and bumpers; and the best for last - 2003 Boxster S 6-speed transmission! https://www.pelicanparts.com/porsche/914/91...y/914_clapp.jpg |

It’s a 1971 or 72 I believe. He was a member of NNJR when I joined in 1976. It was always a really nice original car that was used for club events as a stock 1.7. I doubt it needed restoration when he did the conversion. I frankly was astounded that he converted his long preserved and original car but hell, what a better starting point! Charlie |
