I tried searching, but didn't get much.
What is involved with fitting a 2.7 with CIS in a 914? I can figure out the plumbing and the electrical, but I believe that I had read long ago that it was a PITA to fit CIS without cutting anything or perhaps a mixture of different parts could be used or parts of the intake could be relocated in order to get it all to fit. I'd prefer to avoid cutting this 914 engine compartment since I'm trying to make this one appear mostly factory. Any advice or better yet pictures would be appreciated. I'd rather not go with carbs, since I believe that I'd need to swap cams and pistons in order to do it right. This one is only going to be a fun street car (I already have a dedicated track car) (All my conversion experience has been with 3.2s, but I have this body, and I have this engine...) Thanks in advance! |

You actually rotate the cis 180 degrees and rebolt down.. It is pretty straight forward..
Let me know if I can help.. Also note the naro mount drops the height of the engine approximately 3/4" and will NOT allow for a stock scavange line.. |

I'm I missing something here on that statement? |

I'm I missing something here on that statement? No not bad but the rear engine to sheet metal seal no longer seals and the engine mount is in the way of the stock oil line.. I am going to now be supplying soft line scavange lines with heat exchangers as soon as I make them up and figure out pricing.. |

I'm sure I can deal with the engine tin. Thanks for the info. |
