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! |

CIS is a better choice than most give it credit. It's very simple mechanical fuel injection only needing one electric pump. The 914-6 I bought was converted using a 2.7 with CIS. The PO turned the airbox 90 degrees instead of leaving alone. It's....interesting and gets in the way of the spark plugs. When I go to paint the 914, I'll pull the engine/trans and put things to a more stock or traditional position.
