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! |

I recently sent Ben an oil filter console just like yours. No bypass valve, just open flow. Do you remember where you purchased yours?
I normally use the regular Porsche console. I remove the threaded metal fitting and use a very small C clamp to hold down the bypass spring so I can make sure it gets cleaned out inside. Then a couple drops of motor oil to make sure it stays functional. Ben/MB911 is making new consoles based off the Porsche design so we won't have to search for good used ones. I have one conversion with 914-4 motor mounts and one without. The one without looks cleaner and has more space for hoses but the other reason was the mounts were rusty so getting in back of them was necessary to clean up the corrosion. |
