Does anyone know where to find any information on swapping a Nissan V-6 into a 914? I was told it was common I can't find anything. Thanks

You can start with Kennedy Egineered Prtoducts; they make the adapter plate and clutch for the Nissan V6. Hobart Kennedy told me, in a coversation some years back, the he believed the Nissan V6 was a great match for the 914 and its gearbox ratios.

Steve built one years ago. Great car. Send a PM to Malmz <- Link

He hasn't been on the site in a loooong time, but I would be surprised if he didn't answer a PM.

What part of montana are you in? I'm 3 hours from Billings, and am pretty good with wiring stuff... I've got a 2.5l Mitsubishi V6 from a dodge stratus in my 914 right now and am working on putting a V6 from a 3000GT VR4 in its place.

Which Nissan did you get your V6 out of? which computer are you running? yr/make/model of car your donor pieces came out of?

No, you own one of Steve's old cars. Yes, that is also Steve's old car, but it's not the car I'm talking about. For that matter I've owned one of Steve's old cars. And last I heard it's now a V8 conversion also. But that isn't the point.

One of the 914's Steve owned prior to that car you bought was a Nissan Z/V6 conversion.

It's been on & off of CL for the last year or so too confused24.gif . Looks pretty solid & I'm kind of surprised it still hasn't sold

I was just thinking about this the other day. I am sure you can get a vq revup v6 pretty cheap from any dealer. It will however have an oil consumption problem.

Sorry, I am just a little bitter when it comes to Nissan/Infiniti.
