FS: 914-6 Conversion Parts Options

[a914guy]

Six conversions have become a core element of modification activity throughout the 914 community. It's a great performance improvement with 150, 200 or even 300 HP reliable engines and a huge character change for this mid-engine roadster.

I've enjoyed my 3.0L conversion since 1995 and I have come to know a great number of 914ers like myself who have done the six conversions and are extremely happy with the result.

If you need any of the pieces to do the project, advice or someone to rationalize that changing a perfectly good car is a good idea, please email or call. I'll be happy to pass on my perspective.

The items below are the common pieces I can provide to help with your 914-6 conversion project.

1. 914-6 Engine conversion mounts allow you to hang your flat six in the 914-4 chassis. Weather it's a 2.0L a 3.6L or any variation in between there is a kit that will make it fit perfectly. Nearly 1500 of these kits have been successfully used in projects here and in Europe. You have probably seen a conversion project detailed in Excellence or Pano where they have installed this kit.



The basic kit is $225.00, add the installation hardware and 911 mounts and the kit totals $300.00.

2. The installation also requires a new set of engine sheet metal. This set is a high quality, yet economical solution to solve that need.



The five piece OE style set is 385.00.

3. Accelerator linkage solutions like the factory six setup are also available. You will need to change your 914-4 linkage for the 911 engine weather it has Weber carbs., MFI CIS or DME fuel injection.



The basic kit price is $250.00 and the complete DME kit is $350.00.

4. If you don't have a factory 914-6 oil cooler the 911 oil cooler will need a Metric or AN modification to avoid interference with the 914s inner rear trailing arm mount.



The metric modification done on an exchange basis is $175.00. Complete oil coolers with the metric mod. are available for $375.00.

5. There are a number of oil supply solutions. I like the stock tank configuration on street and dual purpose cars and prefer the OE tank.



The new Porsche 914-6 oil tanks are $$$. Please contact me for cost details.
