I figure if someone's stuck a 962 motor into a 914, that this has to be the next step.

What?

Sometime guys don't post enough pictures with their ad and sometimes they post too many...

a thought:

The bonehead who attempted walking on water in a Veyron was rumored to own an exotic-car salvage business.

This drivetrain is for sale in Spring, TX - about an hour from Galveston...

Hi Brad

Hiya Brad A couple of familiar faces we haven't seen in a while coming out today.

Hi Mike and Travis! Yeah, I haven't logged on in ages. I've just started driving my 914 a bit more recently. Just sold my M3 a few weeks ago, still driving my Boxster for the most part when I need a sports car fix. Otherwise, I have an '09 Honda Fit Sport for my daily driver. I love it because I can beat the absolute he|| out of it and nobody knows I'm doing it! It has these ridiculous paddle shifters that look like they came right off of a video game controller.

Travis, I see you're still here in AZ, I guess you've still got your 914?

Thats a pretty sweet drive train.

If I was gonna spend a huge amount of money I don't have on an engine I think I'd rather have a four-cam.

Sorry for the hijack...

Edit: That link took me up a level then tohere which has a video clip of that Speedster doing a tour lap at Lime Rock. I'd never actually heard a four-cam before. Very busy sound...

That took me to KAM Motors which is apparently defunct now, but the Wayback Machine has many saved versions and looks like it has plenty of saved pix. (Alas, the Wayback Machine isn't quite as responsive as Google.)

I still have both 914's. One of them will be getting a 3.2 this spring.

Dude, anyone can drive a jag.....no one else on earth would have a 914 with that in it....you would be famous.

I am sure Chris and Ed could make it fit.

Looks like the start of another Alien......

Go for it! Having seen Ed's turbo 914, I'm pretty sure he and Chris could do it.

That'd be a great sounding engine, but if I were going watercooled, I'd just get a new GT2 motor from my dealer for $17k (I think that's the price they were selling them for...with turbos!).

Yeah sure and lets see how quickly I kill myself. LOL

I got plans for my 914 in the next 2 years. None of them involve more power but it will be much faster.

Do it...you will be famous and you could probably sell the car to a museum when your done...then buy a jag with the profit.

Rich

You don't even get the ac compressor. It is a nice flat configuration but the axle flanges seem pretty high.

> I'd just get a new GT2 motor from my dealer for $17k (I think that's the price they were selling them for...with turbos!).

Really? That seems hard to believe (too cheap).

Actually for $50k, that's doesn't seem that bad. A similar transmission is going to be at least $15k, so $35k for the engine... ? I noticed the ECU is not included. Maybe the first CGT with MegaSquirt!

-Steve

Yeah, the local Porsche of Alexandria was selling off their stock of NOS motors...crazy deals for water-cooled engines.

Hurry and place your bid, you don't want this one to get away!

No problem. Bring money.

Go for it!
We are here to help.

I think that porsche motorsport leases the Cup car engines for the 997 for $33k or so. So, 17k for a GT2 seems off.

Come on somebody, buy it buy it buy it.
